==Early life and career==
King〔Note: from his interview with Blues and Rhythm magazine: "When (birth certificate ) came back, it came back B. Noris King. I guess they couldn't understand (mother ). Like I have an initial for my first name! That's what's on my passport. I'm stuck with that! Whenever I write a check or something that's how I have to sign my name! People at home know my real name. If they ever have to look at my license to do an obituary it's going to come up B. Noris. You have the real scoop, now." (''Bnois King Interview'' );〕 was born January 21, 1943, in Delhi, Louisiana, a small town thirty miles east of Monroe, Louisiana.〔(''Bnois King Interview'' ); Don O.; published in Blues and Rhythm Magazine #122; 1997; accessed November 2015〕〔 He had seven brothers and two sisters.〔 (''Featured Blues Interview – Smokin' Joe Kubek & Bnois King'' ); October 3, 2013; column; by Terry Mullins; Blues Blast Magazine; Issue 7-40; accessed November 2015〕 King started playing guitar at the early age of eight when he found an unused guitar in his grandmother's closet and started picking out notes.〔 He attended Boley High School, which lacked a music teacher until his final year there.〔 Up until then, the few songs he could play he played by ear.〔 While still in high school, James Moody, the owner and bandleader of a 20-piece big band out of New Orleans (called "The New Sounds"), took him under his wing and gave him his first paying gig, for which King made $15.〔 Once King realized he could make money playing guitar on stage is when he reports "...I really got serious" about playing guitar."〔
After high school, King traveled to west Texas (Amarillo), Colorado and Oklahoma, and finally settled in north Texas (Wichita Falls) while trying to break into the music industry and make a career from it.〔 Struggling at first in the industry, King sometimes found himself playing at carnival side shows or working 'straight jobs' (such as detailing cars at a dealership).〔 King was, however, again performing regularly in Dallas and Fort Worth by the late 70s,〔 usually playing with jazz bands.〔 playing with Big Joe Williams along with other local talent, often out of a local Dallas blues spot, Poor David's Pub.〔
It was in Dallas that King met, and thereafter periodically teamed up with, electric blues guitarist Smokin' Joe Kubek, starting in 1989.〔〔(''Bluesmen Smokin' Joe Kubek and Bnois King Are Soulmates'' ); September 13, 2012 Dallas Observer interview with King and Kubek〕
