InstagramMost Iconic Live Music Moments on Instagram: "Follow (me) @epicliveperformances to tune into the most iconic moments in live music history …. Here is the effortlessly cool Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown digging into “Leftover Blues” during his legendary 1996 Austin City Limits performance. Watching him casually tear through the fiddle like it’s second nature says everything about who he was as a musician. Born in Louisiana in 1924 and raised in Texas, Gatemouth refused to be boxed into a single genre. While many tried to label him strictly as a bluesman, he pushed back hard, calling what he played “American music, Texas style,” a fearless blend of blues, jazz, Cajun, country, and R&B. A true multi-instrumentalist, he could swing just as hard on guitar as he could on violin, mandolin, harmonica, or drums, making every performance feel loose, alive, and completely his own."
