About Buddy Knox

Australia’s Answer to BB King

Buddy Knox

Buddy has carved up the Blues scene around Australia since 2007, notching his Blues belt with all the big ticket Australian festivals from Bridgetown to Bluesfest. He won the Sydney Blues Society Performer of the Year twice, and continues to share his old school Blues style with fans. Buddy plays with smooth finesse, in the tasty authentic style of the old legends.

Armed with his signature 335 Gibson, or more recently in acoustic sets, the Maton, his devotion to the art form is genuine .

The Blues sure have got Buddy Knox, but ask him yourself, he’s happy about that, with a lifelong passion for this genre.
Whilst yearning to play like rocker Chuck Berry as a teenager, Buddy now has a style of his own that exudes the essence of Blues.

He’s been referred to as our very own BB, but expect a dash of Freddie King guitar style in his show.

Buddy’s recent move to acoustic Blues gives fans the intimate experience of bare bones genuine Blues, Knox style.
