Eric Bibb: One Mississippi UK Tour 2026
Three-time Grammy nominee and blues legend Eric Bibb returns to the stage in 2026 with his brand-new album, One Mississippi – his most musically adventurous and ambitious work to date.
With an award-winning career spanning five decades, Bibb has become one of the most respected voices in roots and blues music. His warm baritone, masterful acoustic guitar, and gift for storytelling have captivated audiences across the globe. On One Mississippi, Bibb continues his late-career renaissance, blending blues, folk, soul, and Americana into songs that speak to our shared past and present.
The album features 13 original compositions, alongside the title track One Mississippi, written by Bibb’s high school friend Janis Ian with Fred Koller. Produced by long-time collaborator and musical director Glen Scott, and recorded in Sweden with an all-star line up – including guitarist Robbie McIntosh (Paul McCartney, John Mayer) – the record brims with honesty, hope, and a call for unity in divided times.
For this highly anticipated tour, Eric will be joined by his exceptional band: Glen Scott (Bass, Keys, Backing Vocals), Robbie McIntosh (Guitars), and Paul Robinson (Drums).
Prepare for an unforgettable evening of music -featuring both new songs and timeless favourites – delivered with the soul, warmth, and integrity that have made Eric Bibb an international treasure.
