People magazine predicted Kenny Wayne Shepherd "could join the pantheon of blues greats—before he hits 30." The self-taught guitarist was exposed to a variety of music at an early age and began playing at age 7. At age 13, after holding his own on stage with New Orleans bluesman Brian Lee, Shepherd decided on a career. He recorded his debut album at age 17, and it reached a level of commercial success that most blues records never achieve. "Ten Days Out" is the newest project from the two-time Grammy nominee.
