John Nemeth Song #2 – Salmon Arm’s Roots & Blues Festival
John Németh is a rising star – a singer steeped in the blues tradition reminiscent of B.B. King, Ray Charles and Junior Parker. With origins that are an unlikely breeding ground for such an impressive blues talent, this Boise, Idaho native grew up singing in the Catholic Church. “I’ve been singing all my life,” he says. From the day I was born, I’ve been screamin’, singin’, hollerin’, and cryin’. I guess it’s my only reason for existence.”
When he was fourteen, John discovered the blues. “Junior Wells was the artist that hooked me. He was funky like James Brown and lowdown like Muddy Waters.” A bright new talent on the blues scene, John began playing with the Junior Watson Band in 2002, as well as gigging with his own band, the Jacks. In 2004, he recorded “Come And Get It” with Junior’s band, an album that received rave reviews and scored well on independent blues radio charts.
A vocalist with great range, ability, and soulfulness, John also developed into a top-notch blues harmonica player. At a performance in 2006, label head Jerry Del Giudice was so impressed, he signed John to a multi-recording deal with Blind Pig Records. “In our nearly thirty years in the business,” Del Giudice said, “we have never before offered a new artist a recording contract on the strength of one performance.”
The buzz around John Németh is substantial. The Cascade Blues Association selected him as “crowd favorite” at the 2002 Portland Waterfront Blues Festival, and the Washington Blues Society named him the “show stealer” at the 2003 Winthrop Rhythm and Blues Festival. John’s decade long career has found him opening for Robert Cray, Keb Mo’, and Earl Thomas, and performing major festivals around the US, Europe, Canada and Asia.
His uncanny blend of retro-modern blues and soul prove John is a natural-born bluesman with every note he sings, shaping each one with emotion, taste and inspiration. With his pleasingly gruff soul vocals and searing harmonica, this supremely versatile performer has made true believers of some of the biggest names in the business. A 2010 Blues Music Award nomination for Contemporary Blues Male Artist of the Year is the latest nod to come his way, so be sure to catch John Németh now so you can say you saw him in the early years of his soon-to-be giant career!

U.S. BLUES TOUR ’63
Featuring: Victoria Spivey, Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, Otis Spann, Matt Guitar Murphy, Big Joe Williams, Lonnie Johnson, Willie Dixon, Memphis Slim and Billy Stepney.
The 1960s European tours by American Blues artists were legendary. They introduced a music that had only been previously available on hard to find discs to a new generation of young people and changed the face of our popular music forever.
Diehard blues fans at last got the chance to see their idols in the flesh and for those who werent able attend the concerts, many of them were documented on film. The very rare footage on this DVD includes artists who were playing in the early days of the music as well as masters of the Chicago Blues. Due to age, this material contains a few minor visual glitches; the audio is excellent however and nothing distracts from these inspiring and important performances.
Bonus material: Three audio tracks from Victoria Spivey, Lonnie Johnson and Big Joe Williams plus images and biographies.
