A Blues Music Legend
With a career spanning five decades, over 40 albums, and a catalog of awards, including multiple Blues Foundation honors, Eric Bibb is a towering figure in blues and roots music. Ridin', his latest Grammy-nominated album, continues his style of storytelling through song, weaving together history, social commentary, and personal reflections. Bibb's newest album, In The Real World, recorded at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios, has also garnered critical acclaim.

A Songwriter Rooted in Activism and Art
Eric was born into a family steeped in activism and the arts. His father, Leon Bibb, was a prominent civil rights activist and folk singer who marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Growing up in the Greenwich Village folk scene, Eric was inspired by legends like Bob Dylan, Odetta, and Taj Mahal, synthesizing those influences into a sound uniquely his own.

Bibb's storytelling transcends genre, focusing on themes of unity, resilience, and justice. Albums like Ridin' and Dear America showcase his ability to confront historical and modern injustices while offering hope and inspiration.

A Distinctive Venue That Reflects American Workers
With its five-story-high, 3-dimensional mural housed in a former knitting mill building, AMP offers an immersive experience for concertgoers, providing flexible general admission seats with access to all levels to mingle, dance, and take in the entire sweep of the grand mural. The venue's innovative approach bridges music and visual art, making it a standout destination in Northwestern Connecticut. A cash/credit bar serves craft and domestic beer, wine, select cocktails, and nonalcoholic beer and beverages.

This is a rare opportunity to experience a legendary bluesman in one of New England's most unique cultural venues.
