The Memphis-born guitarist spearheaded a revitalization of the blues with rock swagger. He was a child prodigy at the age of 16 when he released his debut, The Eric Gales Band on Elektra Records. After recording a second album for Elektra, he and his three brothers teamed up for The Gales Bros Left Hand Brand, recorded for the House Of Blues label in 1996. More acclaimed releases followed and in 2017 Eric signed with Mascot Label Group, releasing two albums, Middle of the Road (2018), and The Bookends (2019) and Crown (2022), produced by Joe Bonamassa.
