T. J. Fowler (September 18, 1910, Columbus, Georgia, United States – May 22, 1982, Ecorse, Michigan) was an American jazz and jump blues musician, chiefly active in the Detroit musical scene.
[1] Fowler and his family moved to Detroit, Michigan, when he was six years old, where he learned to play piano.
After attending the Detroit Conservatory of Music, he played as the house pianist in his father's pool hall;[1] he also worked at the Ford River Rouge Complex for a time.
Vocalists who worked with the ensemble included Freddie Johnson, Alberta Adams, Floyd McVay, and Varetta Dillard.
The group was active in Michigan through the end of the 1950s, by which time Fowler had switched to electronic organ as his primary instrument.
