TYRONE VAUGHAN
Born in Dallas and raised in Austin, Tyrone Vaughan is the son of Jimmie Vaughan, the founder and guitar player of the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and nephew of legendary blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan. Tyrone grew up in the fast-rising music scene in Austin Tx and was heavily influenced by many blues musicians. Muddy Waters gave him his harmonica at an early age and his Uncle Stevie Ray Vaughan would give him his first 2 guitars. Young Vaughan would also get to see Bobby ” Blue” Bland, Albert Collins, Eddie “Hound Dog” Taylor, James Brown, Otis Rush, and many others. Tyrone got to meet Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Albert Collins, B.B. King, & Bobby Bland. He was also friends with the Austin Blues Scene, with people like Denny Freeman, Derek Obrien, W.C. Clark, Lou Ann Barton Doyle Jr., Alex Napier, Paul Ray, Keith Ferguson, Clifford Antone, and Stevie Ray.
Fast forward 35 years and Tyrone was asked to join the New Orleans based band Cyril Neville’s Royal Southern Brotherhood RSB. The Neville Brother and The Meter’s vocalist would go on to write 3 songs (I Wanna Be Free) (Can’t Waste Time) (Where There’s Smoke) and record 2 albums with Vaughan on Ruf Records. The record (Don’t Look Back) 2015 release was captured at legendary Fame studios in Muscle Shoals, and the 2016 release (The Royal Gospel) was cut at Dockside Studios in Louisiana.
