Christone „Kingfish“ Ingram (US)

In the organizer's words:

In the six years since the release of his Grammy-nominated debut album Kingfish, Christone "Kingfish" Ingram has become a global blues sensation. Born in Clarksdale, Mississippi - just 10 miles from the legendary intersection of Highways 61 and 49 - he has been familiar with the blues since he was a child. Supported by the Delta Blues Museum's Mentoring Program, he developed his unmistakable sound, which is influenced by legends such as B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Freddie King, Albert King, Jimi Hendrix and Prince.

"Kingfish" spent 91 weeks at the top of the Billboard Blues Charts and was nominated for a Grammy. Its 2021 follow-up "662" debuted at #1 on the charts and earned him his first Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album. To date, Kingfish has been honored with 12 Blues MusicAwards and 11 Living Blues Awards.

In 2023, he released "Live in London", which captures the raw energy of his live shows with his powerful guitar work and infectious vocals. The album was critically acclaimed for its authenticity and emotional depth, highlighting his ability to bring modern blues to a global audience. Kingfish continues to write songs, record and play shows, all of which contribute to his growing international popularity. Whether headlining his own shows or sharing the stage with legends like Buddy Guy, Jason Isbell and the Rolling Stones, Kingfish is one of the most dynamic forces in modern blues.
