Keb' Mo' draws heavily on the old-fashioned country
blues style of
Robert Johnson, but keeps his sound
contemporary with touches of soul and folksy storytelling.
He writes much of his own material and has applied his
acoustic, electric, and slide guitar skills to jazz- and
rock-oriented bands in the past as well. Born
Kevin Moore in Los Angeles to parents of Southern
descent, he was exposed to gospel music at a young age. At
21,
Keb' Mo' joined an R&B band later hired for a tour by
Papa John Creach and played on three of
Creach's albums. Opening for jazz and rock artists such
as
the Mahavishnu Orchestra,
Jefferson Starship, and
Loggins & Messina helped broaden
Keb' Mo's horizons and musical abilities.
Keb' Mo' cut an R&B-based solo album, Rainmaker, in 1980
for Casablanca, which promptly folded. In 1983, he joined
Monk Higgins' band as a guitarist and met a number of
blues musicians who collectively increased his understanding
of the music. He subsequently joined a vocal group called
the Rose Brothers and gigged around L.A. 1990 found
Keb' Mo' portraying a Delta bluesman in a local play called
Rabbit Foot and later playing
Robert Johnson in a docudrama called Can't You Hear the
Wind Howl? He released his self-titled debut album as
Keb' Mo' in 1994, featuring two
Robert Johnson covers, 11 songs written or co-written by
Keb' Mo', and his guitar and banjo work. His second album,
Just Like You, was equally well received. Slow Down followed
in 1998 and Door was issued two years later. Big Wide Grin
followed in 2001, while 2004 saw the release of two albums,
Keep It Simple and Peace...Back by Popular Demand. Suitcase
was issued in 2006 on Red Ink Records.
