Lee was a mainstay on Bourbon St at the Old Absinthe House Bar back in the 80's and 90's.
RIP, Bryan

RIP, Bryan
From his FB page:
quote:
Today, Bryan Lee, the Braille Blues Daddy, Blind Giant of the Blues, New Orleans Institution, husband, father, and friend, passed from this life into legend. A sigh of thousands mark his passing.
Bryan dedicated his life to sharing his gift of music. In the liner notes from his recent blues gospel album Sanctuary, “A gift is not a gift unless you share it. God gave me the gift of the blues and I want to share my gift with you.” He dedicated each of his 18 albums first to Jesus Christ, his Lord and Savior and his passion shone through with every note.
At this time, the family is pausing to reflect on this remarkable soul who greeted each day with gratitude, optimism, and humble joy for all his blessings.

RIP Bryan
I'm a friend of his from Illinois. He used to play at my neighbor's house every summer. He actually taught my son his first guitar licks.
A super nice man.

A true legend. I’d watch him in NOLA. Great player, great band. We’ve lost a special one. RIP

My favorite live act. We have lost a legend.

He’s always been known around Shreveport for being the first to put Kenny Wayne Shepherd on stage. Oddly, I was recently wondering if he was still playing and had intended to google him.

He moved to Florida some time ago and was based there in his latter years. Evidently he got tired of Bourbon Street.
