Info for Blues Caravan 2022
Seventeen years since Ruf Records first had the brainwave of a showcase tour, the Blues Caravan concept remains unchanged and unbeaten. Three rising stars from the roster of Europe’s most respected boutique record label. Three live sets that run the gamut of emotion and genre. And as the finale each night, the mother of all live jams, with all three performers cutting loose together – and inviting the audience to do the same.
What the Blues Caravan 2022 did on March 9, 2022 at Café Hahn in Koblenz, Germany where this live album was recorded. The three outstanding artists on the Blues Caravan 2022 have been Katie Henry, Will Jacobs and Ghalia Volt.
Nobody sounds like Katie Henry. The singer-songwriter darting between microphone, piano and Gibson SG, alighting on genres that include rock, roots, R&B, soul, funk and pop. You might catch flashes of a young Bonnie Raitt in Katie’s Blues Caravan performance, but with her raw charisma, heart-on-sleeve songcraft and jam chops hard-won on the NYC circuit, this is one artist earning a reputation on her own terms.“ Music has always been about freedom and expression for me, and when audiences leave my show feeling expressed and more connected to themselves and each other, I know I’ve done my job.”
Will Jacobs is a modern blues/R&B/soul artist from Chicago, Illinois, USA. At 28 years old, he is best known for his powerful live performances. Whether he's playing clubs/festivals, performing with other world-class musicians, doing sessions or composing, Will always looks forward to sharing his passion for music with his audience.
Through her many years of living and touring in the United States, Brussels native Ghalia Volt has been able to soak up the grooves and vibes of the blues like few Europeans before her. The singer and guitarist made her first big splash fronting the New Orleans-based outfit Mama’s Boys; she solidified her reputation as an exceptional talent with her 2019 Billboard Charting release Mississippi Blend working with legends like grammy-nominated Cedric Burnside. Early 2021, she released her One Woman Band album, recorded at the prestigious Royal Studios in Memphis, another Billboard Charting record showing her multi-instrumentalist skills playing drums, slide guitars and singing simultaneously. On the Blues Caravan 2022, she’ll be feeding us a gumbo made out of hits part of her 3 Ruf Records releases.

Katie Henry
is one of a kind. On stage, she flits between vocal mic, piano and Gibson SG in a style that encompasses rock, roots, R&B, soul, funk and pop. You might be reminded of Bonnie Raitt for a moment. But it is her own genuine charisma, her honest songwriting and the musician's impressive skills on two instruments that have earned her her reputation. "When my audience goes home feeling like they've gotten closer to themselves and also to each other, then I know I've done a good job," she says.
Will Jacobs
a modern blues/R&B/soul artist from Chicago, Illinois, USA. At 28 years old, he is best known for his powerful live performances. Whether he's playing clubs/festivals, performing with other world-class musicians, doing sessions or composing, Will is always excited to share his passion for music with audiences.
Ghalia Volt
who comes from Brussels, has been living and touring in the USA for many years and has internalised the original blues like hardly any other European artist. The singer and guitarist first caused a stir as frontwoman of the New Orleans-based Mama's Boys; her 2019 album Mississippi Blend cemented her reputation as an exceptional talent. In early 2021, she released her album One Woman Band, which was recorded at the prestigious Royal Studios in Memphis. An album where she could prove her skills as a multi-instrumentalist. At the Blues Caravan 2022 Ghalia will present a show with all the hits from her 3 Ruf Records releases.
