T-Model Ford
Blues singer and guitarist T-Model Ford was born as James Lewis Carter Ford in 1924 in the small rural town of Forest, Mississippi. By age eleven T-Model was plowing a field behind a mule on his family's farm. Ford got a job at a local saw mill in his early teens. T-Model eventually secured an even better job as a truck driver for a bigger lumber company. Moreover, Ford was sentenced to a chain gang for ten years for murder. Luckily, he was released after serving only two years of his sentence. In addition, T-Model also worked at a logging camp. He has recorded four fabulously lowdown rough and dirty albums for Fat Possum Records. With his savage moan of a ragged voice and gritty guitar playing style, Ford brings a gloriously raw and blunt ferocity to Mississippi Delta blues music that's both passionate and powerful in equal measure.
