manifested itself into a unique musical hybrid via such Billboard Top 40 barnburner Hits as "Tuff Enuff" and "Wrap It Up". Co-founder Kim Wilson, vocalist and harmonica player, still spearheads the group as it evolves into its newest incarnation. And this year his solo album "Take Me Back" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album.

The T-Birds are known for their peerless musicianship and devotion to the sounds of Blues, R and B and Rock n' Roll. Wilson says, "We started as a straight blues band….We now incorporate a mixture of a lot of different styles.
