Brownie McGhee is my all time favorite.
There are others, but I am sleepy. Josh White.
I’m from the generation of old. Where was Mance Lipscomb from? He had a nice Piedmont style.
Blind Blake
Hands down, a true master.
Big ups to Corrosion for the Josh White reference - I love Josh White!
Tampa Red, Blind Boy Fuller, My late husband Paul Buschbacher just to name a few off the top of my head.
My favorite was Blind Boy Fuller though there were better players. See above.

‘Bowling Green’ John Cephas is my favorite. He and his partner Phil Wiggins are the best modern Piedmont players out there.
