Without question one of the most important acoustic blues artists of his generation, Eric Bibb is also one of the most prolific recording artists in the roots music world.

Currently nominated for two prestigious 2016 Blues Music Awards, and the ceremony will be held May 5 in Memphis, Bibb finds himself as a finalist in both as Acoustic Artist of the Year and for Acoustic Album of the Year for his Blues People release.

A smooth, passionate and at times fiery singer, as well as a fluid technically brilliant guitarist, superior tunesmith and ready collaborator, Bibb was nominated for a Grammy for his Shakin’ A Tailfeather disc and was nominated for numerous W.C. Handy Awards before they were re-branded as the Blues Awards.
