Called a wunderkind by blues legend Taj Mahal, Grammy®-nominated guitarist and singer Jontavious Willis makes his Penn Live Arts debut. Performing music from his forthcoming 2024 album, a testament to his love of songwriting, Willis’ toe-tapping tunes are a synthesis of his Georgia heritage and reverence for blues traditions. “Willis deserves to be celebrated as one of the brilliant new voices” as he is “the real deal, a player and singer whose got it all: deep roots feeling, instrumental prowess and a voice that carries the heart and soul of the blues.” (Living Blues Magazine)
