Guitarist Corey Osborn dies in one-vehicle crash
By David Healy

Friday, November 28, 2008

A 23-year-old area musician died this morning after crashing his car while driving on the unfinished portion of Tenn. 385 in east Shelby County.

Corey Scott Osborn of Arlington died at the scene after his Mitsubishi Montero slid off the unfinished road onto the left median. His vehicle rolled numerous times before coming to a rest in the opposite direction he was driving.

Osborn was namesake of his own blues band and a was regular performer on Beale Street and area nightspots.

A Bolton High graduate, he began playing the guitar when he was 11 years old. By age 16, he played regularly on Beale Street and became a frequent performer at B.B. Kings Blues Club.

Osborn was the only person in the vehicle. The accident occurred about 3 miles south of U.S. 64.

TDOT dispatcher Bill Dunn said Osborn was possibly driving at a high speed and evidently disregarded the barricades and continued onto the unfinished portion of the highway.
