Johnny Sansone

Johnny Sansone is a powerhouse harmonica player and soulful singer-songwriter who's become a staple of the New Orleans blues scene. Born in New Jersey, this road-tested musician found his true home in the swamps and streets of Louisiana, where he's blended Chicago blues grit with zydeco rhythms and Crescent City soul since the 1990s. Fans know him for his growling vocals, fiery harp solos, and songs that paint vivid pictures of Southern life – think humid nights, riverboat queens, and the constant push-pull between salvation and temptation (as heard in his Blues Music Award-winning track "The Lord Is Waiting the Devil Is Too"). Recent releases like "Into Your Blues" and "Watermelon Patch" show he's still cooking up that signature mix of foot-stomping grooves and porch-ready storytelling, keeping the tradition alive while adding his own weathered-but-wise voice to the American roots music tapestry.
