Jonn Del Toro Richardson has been TBE family for so long, we occasionally forget his greater reputation…
“Based out of Texas, Jonn is an internationally renowned guitar player with a Blues Music Award for Best New Artist Debut Award for his album “Tengo Blues.” He also won the “Rising Star” award at the International Blues competition and has picked up many other national awards and nominations along the way. Jonn continues to tour extensively both in the U.S. and Europe.”
“Houston native Jonn Del Toro Richardson seems to have been around for a while, winning the Albert King Award for most promising guitarist at the 2005 Blues Foundation’s International Blues Challenge, working as a sideman to the likes of Otis Taylor and mandolinist Rich DelGrosso as well as performing on Pinetop Perkins’ Grammy winning record, Last Of The Mississippi Bluesmen with Robert Jr. Lockwood, Henry Townsend and Honeyboy Edwards.”
