Biography

Lonnie Brooks was a pseudonym used by Lee Baker, Jr. (born December 18, 1933, Dubuisson, Louisiana, USA - died April 1, 2017, Chicago, Illinois, USA) an American blues singer and guitarist. Embarking on a solo career, he adopted the moniker of Guitar Jr. In 1960, he moved to Chicago, Illinois where he learned that Luther Johnson was already using that name, so he adopted the alternative stage name, Lonnie Brooks. Father of Ronnie Baker Brooks and Wayne Baker Brooks.
