Experience the music of 31 year old guitar virtuoso Corby Yates.
Like the universe continually expanding in its own infinite search for truth and perfection, Corby’s ever-evolving music dwells in a similar mind-expanding and soul-stirring space – a musical world where influences of past musical giants merge deeply and seamlessly with his own unique voice and presence. Corby’s music was specifically written to alter your state of consciousness, stimulate your neurons and hopefully bring you joy as you listen.
His distinctly old school roots include Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Chris Cain, Robin Trower, Howling Wolf, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Eric Dolphy, The Yardbirds, Blue Cheer, ZZ-Top, The Groundhogs and more.
At 17, Corby won the prestigious National Jimi Hendrix electric guitar competition in Seattle WA, in the 18 and under division. He began playing guitar at the tender age of six and never looked back. He played many, many hundreds of shows, mainly at clubs, theaters and festivals throughout California, from age 14 on.
While his electric power trio work endlessly explored these deep and varied heavy rock and blues roots, in 2007, Corby turned down the dB’s and also developed a solo acoustic show. Just him, his National Steel guitar and a slide, singing and playing Hill Country blues and more. He rarely performed this way live though, opting to express himself with his band while playing his beloved Ernie Ball Music Man through a late 60’s ragged old Fender Dual Showman Reverb amp.
Over the years, Corby and company enjoyed the opportunity of performing with many great artists and bands including John Lee Hooker, Robin Trower, Johnny Winter, Indigenous, Cheap Trick, The Mermen, Chris Cain, Robben Ford, Tinsley Ellis, Joe Louis Walker, Richard Johnston, Tommy Castro, Jimmie Vaughan, Freak Kitchen, Coco Montoya, The Tubes and others.
In order of appearance, the Corby Yates Band members, both temporary and full-time, were Jim Yates (bass), “Chip” (drum machine), Robert Acree (drums), Randy Hayes (drums), Jeff Campitelli (drums), Andy Doerschuk (drums), Ian Blesse (drums), and Toby Cordova (bass).
Corby’s discography to date includes: Corby Yates Blues Experience EP, Corby Yates, Back From Yesterday, Fungus Blues and Inside Oblivion. So have a listen. Amaze your ears! --- innerlightagency.com
