After many years as a sideman/accompanist to the godfather of British Blues, John Mayall, guitarist Buddy Whittington stepped out on his own with a spring 2009 release on the Belgian Blues Boulevard label. But Whittington didn't step completely out on his own, as he still accompanies Mayall on his tours of the U.S., Canada, and Europe, more than 150 dates a year. Whittington first met Mayall in 1991 when Mayall and his band were making a tour stop in Dallas-Fort Worth and Whittington's band, the Sidemen, had the chance to open for Mayall. Needless to say, Mayall was mightily impressed with Whittington's six-string skills and finesse, so when Mayall's former guitarist, Coco Montoya, left in 1993, Mayall made one phone call and found his replacement.
