Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram is bridging the generational gap in blues. At just 26, he continues to lead the new school of blues players – proving to naysayers that the genre is as relevant than ever.
His cameo in Michael B. Jordan's Sinners says it all. The movie finishes with Ingram playing alongside Buddy Guy – a visual representation of the veteran and the rising star truly keeping the blues alive.
“I was mentored by older people who helped me with my songwriting and playing,” Ingram tells The Guardian.
