Doyle Bramhall II with C.C. Adcock & TheLafayette Marquis
Doyle Bramhall II (born 24 December 1968)[1] is an American blues musician known for his work with Eric Clapton, Roger Waters and his own band Arc Angels. He has released three solo albums, the last being Welcome in 2001.
Doyle Bramhall II was raised in Texas. His father, Doyle Bramhall, Sr., played drums for legendary bluesmen Lightnin' Hopkins and Freddie King and was a lifelong collaborator with childhood friends Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan.
Doyle is notable as one of the few guitarists who plays with his instrument strung upside-down.[2] He plays left-handed, but the instrument is strung for a right-handed player. This unusual arrangement of the strings gives his playing a unique sound, because he bends the strings by pulling them downwards rather than upwardsthe customary approach. Others who have bent strings in this direction include Albert King and the late Canadian blues guitarist Jeff Healey, who played with his instrument flat on his lap for stability and increased string flexibility.
