Like the greats before him, Cummings’ brilliance goes beyond the labels of an excellent blues guitarist or singer; he seeks to be known for the overall pallet of his music, not just one specific color. One of Cummings’ main ambitions is to consistently ​ ​ ​ write songs from the heart rather than songs that simply cater to his specific strengths as a singer or guitarist. The clear authenticity of Cummings’ music has helped to seal his reputation as one of the most masterful blues artists of his time. Cummings’ latest release “Live at the ‘62 Center” showcases that impeccable artistry through the album’s spontaneity and creative spirit. Cummings put together a newly formed version of his usual trio on the same afternoon of the October 2016 recording. Featuring longtime friend and Grammy Award winner Jim Gaines on the soundboard, the album showcases Cummings’ incredible journey into the live performance world and the brilliance of one of today’s most seasoned musicians. Cummings grew up playing five string banjo and listening to bluegrass in Massachusetts—until the day he saw Stevie Ray Vaughan perform in 1987, when he switched to guitar for good. Since his debut album From the Heart (2003) produced by Stevie Ray Vaughan's rhythm section Double Trouble, ​ ​ Cummings has provided some of the most powerful blues music of the 21st century, including numerous highly praised releases for Blind Pig Records. Cummings is Blind Pig’s best-selling artist. In 2012, Cummings released his sixth album. Cummings’ energetic live shows are proof that he is one tough act to follow, and he has shared the bill with music legends B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Charlie Musselwhite, Double Trouble, John Hammond, Susan Tedeschi, Johnny Winter, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, The Neville Brothers, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and Sheryl Crow among many others.
