Blues Traveler promises to please with their incredible soulful sound!
Blues Traveler formed in 1987 in Princeton, NJ, and has since released 14 studio albums, with several achieving gold, platinum, and even six-times platinum status, selling over 10 million units worldwide. Their live performances have reached over 30 million people and earned them a Grammy for “Run-Around,” which holds the record for the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history. Their music has been featured in films and TV shows, and their latest album, “Traveler’s Blues,” was nominated for a Grammy in 2021, marking over 35 years in the industry.
Despite the name, Blues Traveler never really did straight blues, but a jam band blend of rock and soul, funk and jazzy improvisation.

As an artist, singer, songwriter, and guitarist, Samantha Fish has earned numerous accolades for her unique self-expression, which she channels through explosive riffs, visceral rhythms, and spine-tingling vocals.

On Naked Truth (his 21st album), Ellis swaps his blistering, guitar-fueled full band workouts for equally passionate, soul-searching acoustic folk blues. His famed guitar chops and musical creativity are on full display throughout the album’s 12 songs, including nine newly written originals. Naked Truth was produced by Ellis, with the foot-stomping cover of Son House’s Death Letter Blues produced by Atlanta roots musician Eddie 9V. The album was recorded live in the studio using Ellis’ beloved 1969 Martin D-35 (a gift from his father) and his 1937 National Steel O Series guitars. Whether intricately fingerpicking the Martin or playing hair-raising slide on the National Steel, Ellis delivers each song with unvarnished intimacy.
