“Kingfish is the next explosion of the blues.” ~ Buddy Guy

Produced by two-time Grammy winner Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy, Susan Tedeschi, Joe Louis Walker, George Thorogood), KINGFISH showcases Ingram’s blistering, raw and inspired guitar playing, soulful, deep vocals and memorable songwriting. He co-wrote eight of the album’s twelve tracks. “A lot of folks know me for my covers,” he says of his many YouTube videos, some with millions of views each. “That’s why it’s important for me to release original music.”

“This very well may be the most significant blues artist and debut album to be introduced to the world in a very long-time,” says Robert Weingartz, Chairman – AirPlay Direct.  “This is not an artist or album for me to even attempt to describe… you truly must experience this moment in time for yourself. It is not a stretch at this point to foresee a Grammy, and the many other awards surely to be coming soon through the doorway of the Kingfish.”
