The son of Dallas-based R&B guitarist John Jones, Tutu Jones was truly a product of his environment -- growing up in a house frequently populated by guests including <a href="spotify:artist:5dCuFngSPyOOnTAvrC7v2s">Freddie King</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3y33b5UVyqYQeP821eODgO">Little Joe Blue</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:7rVOargGPV6QSrBZJ3JQLr">Ernie Johnson</a>, his own future as a bluesman was never in doubt. Born John Jones Jr. on September 9, 1966, he became a professional drummer while still a teen, backing his uncles Curly "Barefoot" Miller and L.C. Clark before moving on to work with the likes of <a href="spotify:artist:1gdaEBrH99AfhsiQNbaSBp">Z.Z. Hill</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:2drMeidRg4jc07neGOL0Ip">R.L. Burnside</a>. At the same time, however, Jones was also honing his guitar and songwriting skills, and eventually began fronting bands of his own; he cut his solo debut I'm for Real in 1994, followed by Blue Texas Soul in 1996. Two years later, he released Staying Power. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
