Buddy Guy Net Worth

He eventually signed a record deal with Cobra Records and found himself performing and recording with Junior Wells and Delmark Records by 1965. He currently owns a blues club in Chicago known as Buddy Guy’s Legends where he can be seen performing annually in January. His southern flare is often labeled as Chicago blues, though the style contains so much more than both cities combined. Guy has become inspiration to several guitar legends to follow including Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, and many more. He has six Grammy Awards under his belt and was awarded the National Medal of Arts in 2003. He was inducted to the Louisiana Hall of Fame in 2008 and awarded the Kennedy Center Honors in 2012. He was most recently inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum on January 28, 2014.
