Silas Hogan (September 15, 1911 – January 9, 1994) was an American swamp blues musician. Hogan most
notably recorded "Airport Blues" and "Lonesome La La", was the front man of the Rhythm Ramblers, and became
an inductee in the Louisiana Blues Hall of Fame.
WIKIPEDIA Biography
Hogan learned guitar playing as a teenager and was performing on a regular basis by the late 1930s. Similar to
Lazy Lester and Slim Harpo, Hogan was influenced by Jimmy Reed. He had relocated to Baton Rouge, Louisiana by
the early 1950s, and equipped with a Fender electric guitar, Hogan put together the Rhythm Ramblers.They assisted
in the development of the Baton Rouge Blues sound, and with band members Hogan (guitar), Isaiah Chapman
(lead guitar), Jimmy Dotson (drums), plus Sylvester Buckley (harmonica), they stayed together for almost ten years.
In 1962, by which time he was aged 51, Hogan was belatedly introduced by Harpo to the Crowley, Louisiana based
record producer, J. D. "Jay" Miller. Miller, via the offices of Excello Records, started Hogan's recording career, at a time
when interest in variations of swamp blues was starting to wane. Hogan did nevertheless see the issue of several singles
up to 1965, when Miller's disagreement with the record label's new owners brought the recording contract to a swift finale.
Hogan had to disband the group, and returned to his full-time job at the Exxon oil refinery. In the late 1970s, Hogan
recorded further tracks with both Arhoolie and Blue Horizon.
Hogan died in January 1994 of heart disease, at the age of 82.
