I will have to give the one album of his that I own a listen. I picked up Ledbetter Heights in a lot of CDs, but I have not yet listened to it. Interesting that Mel Gibson is his father-in-law.

It's some nice Texas blues/rock, SRV was one of his mentors/models. His first release was when he was 17 (1995) if I read it right. The allmusic info is an interesting read, am a bit surprised he's not better known. But there's so much music these days and so little time.  :thumb:

Ledbetter Heights is his debut album  and features Corey Sterling as lead singer I believe.  Vaocals are quite different from the albums I mentioned avove  ( Live On, Trouible Is) which feature a different singer.  KWS sings mostly  backup  although apparently  now   has a few songs he does on his own.   I alwasy though he was the lead singer but after listenig to the  Ledbetter Hieghts album   nad hearing how different    the vocals were,  I had to go poke around a bit. 
I didn't know Mel Gibson was his  father in law either  , interesting

Couple more    things  I just  read....
After the debut album, Noah Hunt   took over  at lead vocals .    In 2004 he released " The Place you're In" and  it featured  him (KWS)  as lead vocalist.  Seems the albums released later, after he took over at lead,  are   just Kenny Wayne Shepherd, not The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band
