Christone “Kingfish” Ingram
The Hard Road World Tour
Get ready for an electric, jaw-dropping night of blues with Christone “Kingfish” Ingram live at the Rialto Theatre.
“one of the most exciting young guitarists in years, with a sound that encompasses B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix and Prince” – (Rolling Stone)
Christone “Kingfish” Ingram has become a global blues sensation in just six years since his GRAMMY-nominated debut album Kingfish. Kingfish’s rise to fame was fueled by his electrifying live performances and viral videos, which amassed millions of views even before his debut album. After his debut album Kingfish topped the Billboard Blues Chart for 91 weeks and earned a GRAMMY nomination, Ingram followed up with his 2021 release 662, which also debuted at #1. The album earned him his first GRAMMY for Best Contemporary Blues Album and was hailed by NPR as “astounding.”
With his jaw-dropping guitar prowess and captivating vocals, he delivers contemporary blues that resonate with audiences worldwide. Whether headlining his tours or sharing stages with legends like Buddy Guy, Jason Isbell, and The Rolling Stones, Kingfish remains a dynamic force in modern blues — a young artist who respects the past while blazing his trail.
