He was nominated for seven music awards including a Blues Music Award which he won. To date, he has been involved in the release the twelve original albums.
The steamroller Johnny Sansone has overwhelmed audiences around the planet with his powerful vocals, sizzling Blues harp, and mastery of his Cajun accordion. A crowd favorite at every venue, Johnny turns out seamless energetic passion with his spellbinding gumbo of swampy blended Blues and R&B. His bare-knuckle approach is reminiscent of an elder southern prophet that has lived on the hard road that draws his sermon from a deep dark backwoods well. His performances are pure, unpretentious and come with a full-grown swagger. Johnny Sansone is the personification of the finest that the New Orleans' music scene has to offer.

Jason Ricci Biography
Jason Ricci is one of the best and most imitated blues harmonica players of the 21st century.
He picked up the instrument as a teenager when he started playing in a punk rock band. His journey started in earnest when he watched and later was mentored by legendary harmonica player Pat Ramsey in Memphis. As Ricci gigged and grew as a player he found work and support from the southern blues community. He lived and played with Junior and David Kimbrough in Mississippi and then worked as a sideman with Big Al and The Heavyweights for more than a year. In the late 90s, he formed Jason Ricci and New Blood, a band that toured around the world for more than a decade and released critically praised albums like Done With The Devil and Rocket Number 9. Ricci’s latest chapter is the New Orleans band Jason Ricci and The Bad Kind, a band influenced by the sounds of New Orleans and artists like The Meters and Doctor John. What defines Jason Ricci as an artist is the fearlessness with which he approaches his instrument and music and transmutes the hardships we all face into unforgettable music.
