Rob Stone
Rooted in traditional blues, yet delivering high-energy performances with a contemporary impact, harp-playing vocalist Rob Stone is one of the busiest musicians on the blues scene today. His wide-bodied harmonica attack and cool, streetwise vocals display an unshakable Chicago Blues foundation.
Stone cut his musical teeth in the gritty clubs of Chicago’s north, south and west sides, learning from the masters. In the 1990s he toured as part of Sam Lay's band. He has played clubs, concerts and festivals throughout Europe and Japan, and opened major shows for B.B. King, Etta James, Robert Cray, James Cotton, Los Lobos Johnny Winter, Elvin Bishop, and Jose Feliciano to name a handful. Rob has also been tapped to perform alongside rock ‘n roll royalty: SLASH, Billy Gibbons, and Nancy Wilson (of Heart).
Rob appeared in the Martin Scorsese-produced “Godfathers and Sons” episode of The Blues series that aired nationwide on PBS Television. He also contributed a song that was featured in an episode of NCIS: New Orleans.
