Lobero LIVE will present Grammy-award winner Keb’ Mo’ at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 22 at Santa Barbara’s Lobero Theatre.

With five Grammys, 14 Blues Foundation Awards, and a career spanning nearly 50 years, Keb’ Mo’ is one of today’s most highly-respected artists working in contemporary roots music. Keb’ has also become a captivating onscreen presence over the years.

A philanthropist and outspoken activist, he has devoted numerous hours and helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in support of social, environmental, and racial justice.

Keb’ got his start working behind the scenes as a guitarist, songwriter and arranger before breaking out internationally with the release of his 1994 self-titled debut, which earned wide acclaim for its genre-bending take on old school sounds.

In the decades that followed, Keb’ would go on to top the Billboard Blues Chart seven times, perform everywhere from Carnegie Hall to The White House; collaborate with music luminaries; release signature guitars with both Gibson and Martin; compose music for several TV series; and earn the Americana Music Association’s 2021 award for Lifetime Achievement in Performance.

His new album “Good To Be” draws on country, folk, blues and soul, transcending genre and geography, and weaving together an optimistic tapestry of the artist’s larger-than-life career.
