" . . . what the blues in the new century should be all about." - Elwood Blues, House of Blues Radio Hour
As the godson of Paul Robeson, the nephew of John Lewis, and the son of Leon Bibb, Eric Bibb was raised in an environment where music mattered greatly. He brings that same intensity, along with what the Dayton Daily News calls "grace, elegance and gentleness", to the concert stage as a mature and increasingly popular performer. Bibb's rich and sensitive vocals and lyrics provide a perfect balance to his fine finger picking technique. Eric's breakout performance at the London Blues Festival thrust him into the front ranks among blues and songwriting circles in Europe where he has lived for most of his adult life. In recent years, North American audiences, too, have experienced the stripped-down acoustic blues that quietly rocks the soul [FMQB] A performance with Eric Bibb is an enriching experience, both musically and spiritually. His music, like his personality, is intimate, assured and passionate.
