Eric Johanson blends sharp songwriting with a deep connection to the guitar, creating music that’s dynamic, soulful, and rooted in a mix of rock, blues, and modern influences. His playing is expressive without being flashy—riff-driven and rhythmic one moment, fluid and melodic the next—always serving the song rather than overpowering it. There’s a rawness to his sound, but also a sense of purpose, pulling from the weight of tradition while pushing toward something new. Whether channeling the swampy pulse of his New Orleans home or leaning into heavier, fuzz-laden textures, Johanson’s music strikes a balance between grit and finesse, power and restraint. As American Songwriter puts it, he “displays his guitar prowess but within the borders of melodies and lyrics that push the boundaries of blues/rock… searing guitar work, and persuasive songwriting.”Hailed as one of the top 50 blues guitarists of the last century by Guitarist Magazine, Sean Chambers has been lighting up the blues scene since his career began in 1998 alongside Chicago blues icon Hubert Sumlin.
His fiery guitar work and gritty vocals have earned him a devoted following and a string of critically acclaimed albums.
Chambers’ powerhouse releases Trouble & Whiskey (2017) and Welcome to My Blues (2018) both landed on the Billboard Blues Albums Chart, and his 2021 album, That’s What I’m Talkin’ About, pays heartfelt tribute to his mentor Sumlin. With a raw, high-energy style that bridges traditional blues and blues-rock, Chambers delivers every performance with passion and authenticity.
