Sonny Webb

In Liverpool in the middle-50s, Kenny Johnson (b. 11 Dec 1939, Liverpool, Britain) created a skiffle group, the Blackjacks, and following that, developed a pastime in nation music. By past due 1959, he previously used the stage name of Sonny Webb – a nod to American nation stars Sonny Wayne and Webb Pierce – and was operating as Sonny Webb And THE UNITED STATES Four. After a disagreement, he created a fresh group, Sonny Webb AS WELL AS THE Cascades and he was quickly joined by among the Nation Four, Joe Butler, on bass. By 1963, the line-up was Johnson, Butler, Frank Wan (business lead acoustic guitar) and Brian Redman (drums). These were contained in the documenting sessions in the Rialto Ballroom in Liverpool and experienced four tracks around the producing albums, THAT IS Mersey Defeat. The songs selected show their affects – Bob Luman (‘You’ve Got Everything’), Buck Owens (‘Reason Me’), Hank Locklin (‘Boundary FROM THE Blues’) and George Jones (‘Who Shot Sam’). And in addition, they made a decision to turn into a full-time nation music group plus they renamed themselves the Hillsiders. Kenny Johnson and his current music group, Northwind, still function sometimes as Sonny Webb AS WELL AS THE Cascades.
