Cerys chats to American singer and harmonica player Jovin Webb about the blues music that's shaped his life so far.

Jovin is based in the city of Baton Rouge in Louisiana and impressed judges on the 2020 series of American Idol. Fast-forward to 2024, and Jovin released his debut album Drifter on the blues label Blind Pig Records. The album was produced by Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy, Susan Tedeschi, and Christone 'Kingfish' Ingram) and features a display of Jovin's harmonica skills and storytelling lyrics as he reflects on everything he's gone through.

Also, Cerys rounds up the latest blues you need to hear, from all around the world and in all shapes and sizes!
