Blind from birth and a true "character," Horton Baker's musical artistry and wit are keenly developed. His repertoire includes songs learned here, there, and everywhere, from ballads taught at the School for the Blind in Staunton, Virginia to spirituals he picked up while on the road with a traveling preacher.
