Known as a “musician’s musician” Alvin Youngblood Hart’s praises have been sung by everyone from Bob Dylan to guitar gods Eric Clapton & Mick Taylor. A devout follower of the “no barriers” approach carved out by veteran performers like Gatemouth Brown and the late/great Doug Sahm, Hart aims to delight the masses and points to challenge the so-called blues purists.
Alvin Youngblood Hart is one of the world’s foremost practitioners of country blues, and a faithful torchbearer for the 1960s and 1970s guitar rock. He was born in Oakland, California, in 1963, and spent part of his youth in Carroll County, Mississippi, where he was influenced by the Mississippi country blues performed by his relatives. Bluesman Taj Mahal once said about Hart: "The boy has got thunder in his hands."
