Ridin' was a GRAMMY® Nominated recording for Best Traditional Blues Album - 66th Annual GRAMMY® Awards (February 4, 2024).

The follow-up to his multiple award-winning, critically-acclaimed 2021 album, Dear America, Ridin' is a continuation of the vision that informs Bibb's artistry as a modern-day Blues troubadour. Grounded in the folk and blues tradition with contemporary sensibilities, Bibb's music continues to reflect his thoughts on current world events and his own lived experiences, whilst remaining entertaining, uplifting, inspirational and relevant.

A two-time GRAMMY® Award nominee with multiple Blues Foundation awards, Eric Bibb is known and revered globally for having carved his own musical destiny with honesty and power. Eric's father, the late Leon Bibb, was an activist, actor, and folk singer who marched at Selma with Dr. Martin Luther King. Eric's youth was spent immersed in the Greenwich Village folk scene. Names like Dylan, Baez, and Seeger were visitors to his home. He was deeply influenced by Odetta, Richie Havens, and Taj Mahal - who guests on Ridin' - and he has synthesized all of that into his very own style.

Press Quotes

(FIVE STARS) With a steely-eyed calm resting atop a cauldron of emotional heat, troubadour extraordinaire Eric Bibb delivers messages at times disturbing, at other times reassuring, and always compelling. Taj Mahal guests on a surefire pleaser, 'Blues Funky Like Dat'. The history contained in 'Tulsa Town' and 'The Ballad of John Howard Griffin' should cause for reflection and Mr. Bibb's powerful readings of '500 Miles' and 'Sinner Man' stand out as well.
