Back when blues was king and South Louisiana was the breeding ground for some of the most memorable American music ever recorded, at the heart of it was Lazy Lester.

This key figure of US blues music has been making his laid back swamp blues for over six decades, is a 2012 inductee to the Blues Hall of Fame and has been nominated for three awards in the 2012 Blues Music Awards including Traditional Blues Album for his latest, You Better Listen.

Starting out as Lightnin’ Slim’s harpist of choice, perhaps his most famous hits in his own right are I'm a Lover Not a Fighter and I Hear You Knockin. The very embodiment of the American blues tradition Lester’s voice has enriched with age and his harmonica playing has lost nothing.
