Tommy Talton was a founding member of 70s Capricorn Records group Cowboy. While in Macon, Ga. through most of the 70s, Tommy was a studio musician recording with artists such as Bonnie Bramlett, Martin Mull, Corky Lang (West, Bruce and Lang, Mountain), Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Clarence Carter, country legend Kitty Wells, Alex and Livingston Taylor, Arthur Conley of Sweet Soul Music fame, and more.He toured exclusively throughout the U.S. with Cowboy and with Gregg Allman's Laid Back tour, from Carnegie Hall (as special guests) to Fillmore West in San Francisco and most cities in between. Tommy lived and toured in Europe throughout the 90s and formed a group there, called The Rebelizers, with members of Albert Lees band Hogans Heroes. Tommy is now joined by three spirited, creative musicians from the southeast (Tallahassee and Birmingham).

Talton continues to tour with The Tommy Talton Band and Cowboy (reunited in 2010), as a solo act in intimate listening rooms, and as a special guest with many other well known, accomplished musicians and bands.

For more information check out his website.

His performance in the Blues Express Festival 2011 Luxembourg was an awaited and well received one. For about 2 hours people could listen to his great music.
