Big Daddy Kinsey (March 18, 1927 — April 3, 2001[1]) was an American blues singer, guitarist and harmonica player. Born Lester Kinsey in Pleasant Grove, Mississippi he was a slide guitarist and harp blower with roots in both the Mississippi Delta and post-war Chicago Blues styles.[1] Kinsey worked with local bands only long enough for his sons to mature into top-flight musicians, and since 1984 (when Kinsey recorded his debut album, Bad Situation) the family act has become one of the hottest attractions in contemporary blues.
