2x-GRAMMY® Award-Winner - 6x-GRAMMY® Nominee - Blues Hall of Famer - 14x-Blues Music Award Winner & 56x-Blues Music Award Nominated Singer & Songwriter Bobby Rush is certainly a Living Legend.
Rush earned his first GRAMMY® Nomination for his 2000 album 'Hoochie Man'. He was Nominated for a GRAMMY® Award in 2014 for the album 'Down in Louisiana' and again in 2015 for the album 'Decisions'. In 2017, Rush won his first GRAMMY® for his 25th studio album, 'Porcupine Meat' with guest artists Dave Alvin, Joe Bonamassa, Vasti Jackson, and Keb' Mo'. Recently, Rush won the 2017 Blues Music Award for "Blues Album of the Year" ('Porcupine Meat'), the 2020 Award for "Soul Blues Album of the Year" ('Sitting on Top of the Blues') and the 2021 Award for "Acoustic Blues Album of the Year" ('Rawer Than Raw').
Rush has headlined European festivals with his band and solo programs at venues including Jazz at Lincoln Center. He just recorded an album of brand new material, “All My Love For You.” Over the last several years he’s won a second Grammy, re-recorded his 1971 hit “Chicken Heads” together with his old friend Buddy Guy and young blues star Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, and written a critically acclaimed autobiography, "I Ain’t Studdin’ You: My American Blues Story."
Rush has become one of the most prominent advocates for the blues tradition, and says “it’s the root of all music, it’s the mother of all music. If you don’t like the blues, you probably don’t like your mama.”
"Rush is one of the greats, a legendary bluesman..." says Rock & Blues Muse.
And he has no plans to slow down now.
