John Hammond
John Paul Hammond (born November 13, 1942, New York City) is an American blues singer and guitarist. Hammond usually plays acoustically, choosing National Reso-Phonic Guitars, and sings in a barrelhouse style.
He is Blues Music Award Winner: 2004 and 2003 for Best Acoustic Blues Artist, 2002 for Best Acoustic Album for his Tom Waits produced Wicked Grin. To date, Hammond has been honored with a total of 8 Blues Music Awards and an additional 10 nominations
He’s a historian of the Blues, acoustic and electric and it shows. He can accurately replicate just about any historic Blues figure you can name. He’s equally adept at the guitar and the harmonica and a joy to listen to.
