Tony Boyd @ Catfish Cabin

Tony Boyd is a solo musician born and raised in the hills of Sentobia, MS. Described as “a laid-back tribute to Americana,” Boyd has performed his own variety of folk, country and blues music throughout the region for over three decades. Boyd picked up the harmonica at the age of twelve, but only really started performing publicly in his thirties. Now, you can find him playing all throughout North Mississippi multiple times a week, filling venues with his soothing acoustic tunes. Bob Dylan is his main musical idol, and that’s plain to see and hear in the music that Boyd masters. “Artists who found themselves in the ‘country rock’ genre of the 70s definitely influenced me.” Boyd has quite the resume when it comes to the number and quality of shows he has played. He’s shared the stage on a number of occasions with Blackberry Smoke—an Atlanta-based touring rock band—and has opened for the likes of Kix Brooks, Cowboy Mouth, and Bo Diddley. He has even played the celebrated Thacker Mountain Radio show as a solo artist.
