“The joyous embodiment of the future of acoustic blues” – Susquehanna Folk Music Society

Tickets: $25 (fees not included)

Hubby Jenkins, a talented multi-instrumentalist, historian, and interpreter of American roots music, shines a light on the African-American influence at the heart of country, blues, and old-time traditions.

A gifted banjoist, guitarist, and fiddler, Jenkins first came to national prominence as a core member of the Grammy Award-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops, a group celebrated for reclaiming the Black string band legacy.

Driven by a deep passion for the cultural roots of American music, Jenkins has built a solo career that bridges performance and education. His shows are rich, soulful journeys through African-American musical history—blending spirituals, ragtime, early blues, and folk with stories that underscore the music’s historical and social context.
