Christone "Kingfish" Ingram – Kingfish (CD)
Product Details
Clarksdale, Mississippi has been sending blues royalty into the world for over a century, and Christone Ingram arrived already carrying that weight with full awareness of it. He was barely out of his teens when this debut dropped, yet he plays with the authority of someone who came up studying the masters in the very soil where the music was born. The co-signs here are earned, not manufactured.
2019 release. 20 year-old blues firebrand comes bursting out of Clarksdale, Mississippi, with a sensational debut packed with piercing guitar, husky, impassioned singing and potent songwriting. Kingfish reinvigorates the blues with Ingram's infectious, youthful fire. Ingram's mentor, Buddy Guy, makes a cameo on "Fresh Out," four-time Grammy winner Keb Mo is featured on a track and plays on five more, and Chicago blues harp master Billy Branch appears on one.
