New Orleans–based Eric Johanson blends sharp songwriting with a deep connection to the guitar, creating music that’s dynamic, soulful, and rooted in a mix of rock, blues, and modern influences. Johanson broke out with his #1 Billboard Blues album The Deep and the Dirty, then followed it last year with his sixth Top 10 charting release, Live In Mississippi, capturing the fire of a stage show that’s been packing rooms across the U.S. and Europe. Named one of Guitar Player Magazine’s “25 Best New Blues Guitarists” and one of the “Greatest Blues Guitarists of All Time” by Total Guitar, Johanson delivers modern blues-rock with grit, power, and raw electricity. As American Songwriter puts it, he “displays his guitar prowess but within the borders of melodies and lyrics that push the boundaries of blues/rock… searing guitar work, and persuasive songwriting.”

Florida Music Hall of Fame Inductee Sean Chambers began
his professional career back in 1998 when he toured with
the legendary Chicago blues guitarist Hubert Sumlin as his
guitar player and band leader, while developing his own
distinctive style along the way. During Sean’s tenure with Mr. Sumlin, Britain’s own Guitarist magazine named Chambers as “One of the top 50 blues guitarists of the last century.”
Chambers has released nine albums to date. His 2009
breakout, Ten Til Midnight, garnered rave reviews, appeared
on the Living Blues chart for three consecutive months,
and received significant airplay on Sirius/XM Radio blues
channel as a “Pick to Click” and “The House of Blues Radio
Hour” as a “Blues Breaker”. It received steady airplay in 45
states around the U.S, as well as many markets overseas.
