The Soul Of John Black is the nom de musique of John Bigham, whose impressive resume includes a stint as percussionist with the Miles Davis band, eight years of guitar and keyboard work with the pioneering rock-funk-ska band Fishbone, and touring and session work with Dr. Dré, Eminem, Nikka Costa, Bruce Hornsby and Everlast, just to name a few.
It's blues for a new generation, crafted by a mature spirit who is adept at acoustic, electric, and slide guitars as well as soulful singing. With a laid back, but focused approach to live gigs, Bigham’s arrangements blend blues, folk, funk, rock, country, classic soul, gospel and world music, thus bringing the blues up to date without sacrificing authenticity.
“The Soul of John Black uncovers a stripped bare but solid little band fusing soul, blues-rock and hip-hop flavas.” The Philadelphia Daily News

"I see a different kind of discourse going on by taking away the fourth wall and losing that distance between the performer and the audience - which can be a 20-foot gap with an orchestra pit."
"In a more intimate space, the audience is remarkably close to the performance. That enables the audience to physically and visually experience the work in a whole new way."
- Peter G. Kalivas
