90 minutes

Three-time Grammy nominee and blues legend Eric Bibb returns to the stage in 2026 with his brand-new album, One Mississippi - his most musically adventurous and ambitious work to date.

With an award-winning career spanning five decades, Bibb has become one of the most respected voices in roots and blues music. His warm baritone, masterful acoustic guitar, and gift for storytelling have captivated audiences across the globe. On One Mississippi, Bibb continues his late-career renaissance, blending blues, folk, soul, and Americana into songs that speak to our shared past and present.

The show will be opening with the fantastic Janileigh Cohen

Janileigh Cohen’s music began quietly. Songs written in a shed at the bottom of her grandmother’s garden in rural Lancashire, inspired by Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell. Those early, solitary beginnings have since rippled outward in unexpected ways. A piano cover of Nick Cave’s The Ship Song led to a sync in the acclaimed Australian film Blueback, while her rendition of Jackson C. Frank’s timeless Blues Run the Game featured in an episode of the Emmy Award–winning US drama This Is Us. Her debut album, As a Child, due for release in 2026, was recorded with an array of stellar musicians from Manchester to Nashville, made possible in part through the generous support of her listeners. It is a quietly assured debut, born out of a longing for a family, forgiveness and learning to let go.

For this highly anticipated tour, Eric will be joined by his exceptional band:

Glen Scott (Bass, Keys, Backing Vocals),

Robbie McIntosh (Guitars),

andPaul Robinson (Drums)

Prepare for an unforgettable evening of music—featuring both new songs and timeless favourites—delivered with the soul, warmth, and integrity that have made Eric Bibb an international treasure.

“This new collection of stories… is a call for peace, justice & unity in a divided world.” – Eric Bibb
