Robert Cray, one of the few active blues artists is endowed with the talent and vision to successfully usher the idiom into the future. He simply passes it off as blues without resorting either to slavish imitation or simply playing rock. He is considered as one of the most expressive vocalists and impressive guitarists on the contemporary rhythm and Blues scene, Robert Cray draws R&B, rock, pop, and jazz with equal insight and authority. He consistently experiments with his two presiding genres, blues and soul. Also a psychedelic rock feel is reflected in some of his works.
In 1974 in north west of America was born "The Robert Cray Band". Cray has received no less than six Grammy nominations along with three awards and has obtained the universal respect and admiration of musicians and audiences. The Robert Cray Band moved from Portland to Seattle and San Francisco in the early 1980's to build up the impressive credentials they are holding today. "Who's Been Talking", the band's debut record released in 1980 and Cray's sound began to spread all over. The band's first national tour saw them share the stage with the "Kings of the Boogie", John Lee Hooker and Willie Dixon in 1983. "False Accusations", a 1985 release made Newsweek's Top 10 LP picks and reigned No. 1 on the US and UK charts. In "Show Down!", 1985's release guitarists Johnny Copeland and Albert Collins performed with Cray and the success of it yielded them with a Grammy.
