Biography
As a self-taught multi-instrumentalist and recent inductee into the Alabama Blues Hall of Fame, Skyler Saufley is carving his own path in the blues world. Specializing in jump, swing, and West Coast–style blues, his commanding stage presence and natural showmanship make his talent impossible to ignore — channeling the spirit of legends like T-Bone Walker and Pee Wee Crayton while sounding entirely his own.
Saufley’s live performances blend electrifying blues with boogie-woogie standards, bringing audiences to their feet and leaving them hungry for more. With a relentless touring schedule, he has just completed his third European tour and is already slated to return this summer.

“Saufley is not your typical blues player, and his journey to become one is uniquely his own.”
— The Uproar
“Without today’s technical wizardry, mid-20th century music was nothing if not authentic. And because of his song choices and retro style, Skyler Saufley could easily pass for a contemporary of that era: He’s every bit as genuine.”
— Atlanta Journal Constitution
“With his retro style and soft Southern drawl, Saufley almost seems born to play the blues.”
— Arts ATL
“After watching Skyler take command of the room with a well-polished performance, I felt as if all of us present were thinking the same thing: He’s a star.”
— The Local
“Most youngsters bitten by the blues bug gravitate toward a more electrified style of blues rock, epitomized by screaming guitars and roof-rattling volume. But Saufley looks to an earlier era in the genre—one dominated by the raucous jump blues of T-Bone Walker, Pee Wee Crayton, Goree Carter, and others. ”
