"An impressive contemporary blues and soul powerhouse... Jovin Webb is clearly the real deal" —Rock & Blues Muse
Five years before he dazzled millions of viewers on American Idol with his bayou mystique, his humility, and his distinctive gravelly vocals, lifelong musician Jovin Webb was on the verge of giving up on his music career dreams. Bringing Louisiana soul to the famed talent show franchise proved to be a career reset.
Today, the Baton Rouge-based artists steps forward with his raw and emotive debut album, Drifter, out on the iconic blues label, Blind Pig. The 12-song collection is a vibrant mix of growling low-down blues, Jovin’s wailing harmonica, heartfelt soul ballads, and rowdy, Little Richards-style rock 'n' roll. Drifter was produced by multi-Grammy winning producer Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy, Susan Tedeschi, Christone "Kingfish" Ingram).
