Tee Fletcher

Thomas Fletcher was a brilliant songwriter who had been kicking around Atlanta for years before meeting Jesse Jones at the Playboy club on Luckie Street in early 1968. His resume included a brief stint at Wendell Parker’s Shurfine label and a handful of writing credits for locals Larry James, the Barons, Richard Marks, and Jimmy Tig. Performing under the name Tee Fletcher, he made up for his lack of polish with sheer determination, a quality Jones could appreciate.
