About the show

Three-time Grammy nominee and blues musician Eric Bibb returns with his brand-new album, One Mississippi - his most musically adventurous and ambitious work to date.

With an award-winning career spanning five decades, Bibb has become one of the most respected voices in roots and blues music. His warm baritone, masterful acoustic guitar, and gift for storytelling have captivated audiences across the globe. On One Mississippi, Bibb continues his late-career renaissance, blending blues, folk, soul, and Americana into songs that speak to our shared past and present.

For this highly anticipated tour, Eric will be joined by his exceptional band Glen Scott (bass, keys, backing vocals), Robbie McIntosh (guitars), and Paul Robinson (drums).

Prepare for an unforgettable evening of music featuring both new songs and timeless favourites, delivered with the soul, warmth, and integrity that have made Eric Bibb an international treasure.

Featuring

Eric Bibb appearing at this event

Eric Bibb

Blues meets gospel and soul when Eric Bibb sings from a beautifully realised repertoire of soulful, gospel-infused folk and blues; a melding of traditional rootsy American style with a subtle contemporary sensibility. Originally from New York, Eric Bibb has been described as 'the heir to the roots / blues throne created by Richie Havens and Taj Mahal'. Or more succinctly put from The Times ' A voice to die for!' Those who have followed Bibb's career, know that Bibb owes much of his success to the subtle balance he has achieved between tradition and modernity. This is true of his music, and even more so of his lyrics, as he treats themes such as love, the universality of man, and his belief in mankind with a sincerity that never sounds jejune, a simplicity that’s never trivial, an empathy that carefully avoids pathos.
