Timeline
Ronnie Baker Brooks (born January 23, 1967) is an American Chicago blues and soul blues guitarist, singer and songwriter.
He was a respected club performer in Chicago, even before recording three solo albums for Watchdog Records.
The son of fellow Chicago blues musician Lonnie Brooks, he is the brother of another blues guitarist, Wayne Baker Brooks.
AllMusic journalist, Andy Whitman, described Brooks as "... a better than average soul singer, a fine blues interpreter, and a monster guitarist with an ample supply of technique and passion."
He was born Rodney Dion Baker in Chicago, Illinois, United States.
At the age of nine, he first appeared on stage playing guitar alongside his father.
In 1985, he graduated from Hales Franciscan High School.
He learned to play bass guitar and joined his father's band in 1986.
He played guitar on his father's live album, Live from Chicago: Bayou Lightning Strikes, released by Alligator Records in 1988.
He was then part of Alligator Records' 20th Anniversary Tour, performing alongside Koko Taylor, Elvin Bishop, and Lil' Ed Williams.
By 1998, Brooks was pursuing a solo career.
His debut album, Golddigger, was released the same year by the Watchdog label.
It was produced by Janet Jackson.
He was nominated for a Blues Music Award in 2000 for Best New Artist.
His second album, Take Me Witcha, was released in May 2001.
Brooks next album was The Torch (2006).
The Boston Herald described it as "ferocious and unrelenting, The Torch may be the year's best blues album."
From 2007 to 2010, Brooks toured with band members Carlton Armstrong, C.J. Anthony Tucker, and Steve Nixon, to support The Torch.
On occasions when his younger brother, Wayne Baker Brooks, joined him and his father on stage, they were billed as the Brooks Family Band.
Brooks played at the Notodden Blues Festival in 2007 and at Memphis in May and the Musikfest in 2009.
In August 2010, he co-wrote three tracks with Chris Beard for the latter's Who I Am and What I Do, released by Electro Glide Records.
In 2012, the blues journalist David Brais declared Brooks "blues royalty", stating that "his particular style of Chicago blues has been performed on stages around the world. It honors the true torch bearers of this unique sound which includes Willie Dixon, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Luther Allison and his father."
Times Have Changed is Brooks most recent album, and was released in January 2017.
Brooks lives in Dolton, Illinois, and is a regular at Artis's Lounge on Chicago's South Side.
