A gifted guitarist with an eclectic range of influences, Luther Dickinson has earned a reputation as an innovator in modern blues with a keen understanding and respect for its rich history. Whether co-leading the North Mississippi Allstars, recording and performing solo, or producing and collaborating with artists ranging from Jimbo Mathus and Sharde Thomas to Amy LaVere and Alvin Youngblood Hart, his devotion to (and experiments with) roots sounds from the American South is total: blues, rockabilly, gospel, folk, and raw funky soul are just a few of the genres he indulges and recombines on his mercurial recordings. His catalog ranges from the punk-blues project Spencer Dickinson (2006's The Man Who Lives for Love) and a showcase for female roots music singers (2019's Solstice by Luther Dickinson & the Sisters of the Strawberry Moon) to a family-friendly roots music collection (2023's Magic Music for Family Folks).
