Brice Lee Gates (born December 20, 1937) is an American blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter. The cousin of fellow bluesman Albert Collins, Gates has released three albums on the Music Maker label. Gates has been performing for almost sixty years, for the bulk of that time being resident in Millwaukee, Wisconsin.He was born the son of Brice and Inez Gates in Pontotoc, Mississippi, United States. Gates first heard the blues as a young child, and grew to appreciate the music created by B.B. King, John Lee Hooker, and Muddy Waters. He later traveled to Randy's Record Shop in Memphis, Tennessee, gaining valuable guidance from the other blues players of that time. Further assistance came from both of his parents who played both blues and country on guitar. His mother supplied Gates with his first guitar when he was aged fourteen. Wikipedia
