The Fabulous Thunderbirds

For over 30 years, the Fabulous Thunderbirds have been the quintessential American band, incorporating Cajun, Blues, Rock and R&B sounds. The Grammy nominated band was founded in 1974 in Austin, TX by front man and internationally acclaimed harmonica player KIM WILSON and the famed guitarist Jimmie Vaughan. In the 1980's the band had a string of hits including, "Tuff Enuff", "Wrap it Up", "How Do You Spell Love" and “Powerful Stuff”. They have toured with the likes of Eric Clapton and The Rolling Stones.

The group's distinctive and powerful sound is influenced by a diversity of musical styles. Blues legend Muddy Waters called Wilson his favorite harmonica player and vocalist. "Muddy Waters was very good to me," Wilson says. "He almost adopted me. I'll never forget him." The Fabulous Thunderbirds pay tribute to Muddy and Howlin’ Wolf in their spring 2013 PAC tour, headlining BLUES AT THE CROSSROADS with James Cotton, JJ Grey, and others.

The Thunderbirds will be flying high this spring with a worldwide release on Severn Records. The slated date for the US release is March 19.
