Genre
Blues
With his powerful, raspy voice and riveting stage presence, Austin-based singer Malford Milligan has drawn comparisons to such soul icons as Otis Redding and Al Green. Milligan was born on March 29, 1959, in Taylor, Texas, and as an albino Black man, he experienced a double dose of America's pervasive racial confusions. Milligan moved to Austin in 1981 to attend the University of Texas, and began singing at the Monday night blues jams at Antoine's. He clearly had talent, and was soon fronting a local alternative band called the Stick People. In 1994 he helped form Storyville, which featured the rhythm section from Stevie Ray Vaughan's Double Trouble. Storyville released three acclaimed albums between 1994 and 1999. From 2001 to 2003 he fronted the explosive Boneshakers band, leaving to form his own group, the Malford Milligan Band, which released an album, Rides Again... in 2006.
Malford Milligan has also released music as a member of Storyville and The Stick People.
