Kingfish (Page 1 of 2)

Door number 3, young Christone Ingram aka Kingfish.  Like I said last week his new album pumps new blood
into the Blues genre.  He reminds me of a young Buddy Guy, sassy and gifted in his playing.  This is not a blues by the numbers collection.  I'd love to catch him at the Rum Boogie in Memphis....and maybe will.

Cheers Curby; your recommends always give me a couple of hours happy searching & exploring, and a "nod" from Gary seals the deal. Having me some of that album...

The link Mike posted is I think the only official video off the album Kingfish.  Though it is a fine song, there are many more much better IMO off the album Kingfish.
There have been many new blues albums released that just don’t intrigue me like they used to.  Not saying they’re bad records just not my cup of tea.  This album, however, just possesses all the elements I hold dear listening to the blues as it should be played.

I'm hooked, thought you might like some of this, what I'm listening to now

Wow!......Im all in on this kid, I totally dig his skills.....20 years old too

Blues rock sensation Christone “Kingfish” Ingram has announced his first headlining tour. The 20-year-old guitarist released his debut album, Kingfish, in May.
“I’m excited to continue to hit the road this year performing songs from my debut album,” says Ingram. “I’ve been fortunate to play live dates since I was young, but the opportunity to headline my first tour in some fantastic venues across the country is a dream come true.”

I have the new album, it took a few times through before it got my attention.....my expectations were not what I expected, guess my mind wanted to hear shredders on every tune

  He can play for sure.But follows the path of focusing on the blues more than just guitar.So I would say if you were expecting the guitar workout style you would be a little disappointed.
  For a young man I think he gets the actual blues vibe more than most. He does sing about it being an old soul in a young body.It is that without a doubt.
