Jontavious Willis is resolved in his mission: to reinvigorate today’s blues with the spirit of the past. Born and raised in rural Georgia, Willis grew up singing gospel but was firmly drawn to the rhythm and deep cultural roots of blues music. An accomplished multi-instrumentalist and GRAMMY-nominated artist, Willis performs original, toe-tapping tunes in the style of Delta, Piedmont, Texas, and Gospel Blues. Dynamic vocals, technical prowess, and an abundance of  Southern charm keep Willis sending jolts of vitality through the Blues community. This performance is generously funded by the W.R. Corley Memorial Trust.
