Anders Osborne

On his seventeenth album, singer-songwriter Anders Osborne describes 2024’s Picasso’s Villa, “a condensed story about living in America between 2018-2021. The fears, confusion, deep joy and peace achieved through true friendship, family, community, hours of meditation and detachment from ego.”
Further, Osborne has been in a twelve-step program for fifteen years. He explains, “The biggest change in getting sober was the focus on meditation and prayer, just looking more inward. When I’m sleeping in 140 different beds a year, eating unhealthy foods, meditation is what keeps me centered. Holding myself in that sacred space for a while is what makes it possible for me to do all this.”
After living and performing in New Orleans for almost four decades, Osborne has become a fixture of that musical community. Thus, Guitar Player called him “the poet laureate of Louisiana’s fertile roots music scene.” Also, New Orleans’ Gambit Weekly honored Osborne as Entertainer of The Year. Additionally, OffBeat named him the Crescent City’s Best Guitarist on three occasions, and the Best Songwriter twice. He has appeared at Jazz Fest for over thirty-five years.
In addition to his solo shows, Osborne performed with the North Mississippi All-Stars, Toots and the Maytals, and John Scofield. Also, The Meters, Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes, Stanton Moore, Phil Lesh, Jackie Greene, Bonnie Raitt, Dr. John, and Taj Mahal. Osborne appeared as himself in an episode of the HBO series Treme. Also, he taught a course about art and the music business at Tulane University. Osborne has collaborated with Steve Earle at the annual Camp Copperhead songwriting camp since 2019.
