With the announcement of Johnny Brandon’s honoring at this year’s Tap Extravaganza, we thought it an appropriate time to launch the tribute site for his teacher and mentor, Buddy Bradley. Complete with biographical information, and a body of work description, this is the only repository on the career of Buddy Bradley.
