Billy Wright, born William Wright on May 21, 1932, in Atlanta, Georgia, was an American singer. Wright began his career singing gospel and performing in tent shows as a dancer and female impersonator. He caught the attention of saxophonist Paul "Hucklebuck" Williams, who recommended him to Savoy Records. Wright's first record, "Blues for My Baby", reached number 3 on the Billboard R&B chart in 1949. Known as the "Prince of the Blues," he was a key figure in Atlanta's post-World War II blues scene and influenced rock-and-roll pioneer Little Richard. In 1954, he signed with Peacock Records. Wright died on October 28, 1991, from a pulmonary embolism.
