John Adam Estes (Ripley, Lauderdale County, Tennessee 25 January 1899 or 1904 — Brownsville, Haywood County,Tennessee 5 June 1977), best known as Sleepy John Estes or Sleepy John, was a U.S. blues guitarist, songwriter and vocalist. In 1915, Estes' father, a sharecropper who also played some guitar, moved the family to Brownsville, Tennessee. Not long after, Estes lost the sight of his right eye when a friend threw a rock at him during a baseball game.[4] At the age of 19, while working as a field hand, he began to perform professionally.
