Friday's Playlist: The Future of Blues Guitar

This Friday’s Playlist brings together the blazing young blues-rock guitarists poised to shape the genre’s next chapter. Some are already commanding festival stages, others are just starting to make waves... but every one of them plays like the future is now. From swampy and soulful to searing, funky, or forward-looking, they stretch the boundaries of the blues without losing its grit or heart. These are the sounds of 2025... and beyond.
