Floyd Cramer (Shreveport, 27 de octubre de 1933-Huttig, 31 de diciembre de 1997) fue un pianista estadounidense,[1] reconocido como uno de los responsables del sonido Nashville[2][3] y por su estilo de apoyatura, en el que una nota desafinada se desliza en la nota correcta. Formó parte del selecto grupo de músicos de sesión conocidos como The Nashville A-Team. Falleció de cáncer de pulmón en 1997, a los 64 años.[4]
