Internationally acclaimed folk and bluesman Josh White Junior returns to Artword Artbar with a programme of folk and blues favourites from his more than 30 albums and CDs. He promises to include well loved songs from his legendary father’s repertoire like House of the Rising Sun, One Meatball, Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out. Among the many glowing reviews of his performances, this one in Performance Magazine sums up this outstanding performer beautifully: “White has the harmonic finesse of a jazz performer, and his style is still one of the most recognizable and polished sounds in all folk music.” http://www.joshwhitejr.com/
