Little Bobby tops blues charts with 'God Made Me Blue' album release

Dec. 24-MCINTOSH, Minn. - For blues musician Robert Houle III, or Little Bobby, music always ran in the family.

Born in Red Lake, Little Bobby grew up surrounded by music. With his father, "Big Bobby," grandfather Robert Houle - a Minnesota Music Hall of Famer - and extended family being musically inclined, Houle was a natural when picking up his first instrument: a set of drums from his aunt and uncle.

Soon, however, his musical interest would shift to the guitar thanks to inspiration from Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and guitarist Jimi Hendrix.

"It wasn't something I had to go out and try," Houle said. "It's just natural for me and it always has been."
