“One of the most stimulating musicians I have ever played with.” — Eric Clapton

Jerry Portnoy was born in 1943 and grew up in the blues-rich atmosphere of Chicago's famous Maxwell Street Market during the golden age of Chicago Blues. He began his professional career in the late 60s and since that time has performed, live and on television, for millions of people around the world.

Known for his dark, amplified tone, he has long been a favorite of both critics and peers. The New York Times said, "Mr. Portnoy crests like an alto saxophone." Rick Estrin, a leading professional player as well, was quoted in Blues Revue as saying, "He can get so much sound out of that harp — such a beautiful, just enormous, fat, rich tone."
