A Latino Blues guitarist and singer from Córdoba, Argentina, Ivan Singh has taken Chicago's blues community by storm with his extraordinary "LatinBlues" style — a soulful fusion of classic Chicago blues, Argentine rhythms, Spanglish lyrics, and the unmistakable sound of his homemade "Lata de Batata" — a handcrafted 4-string can-box slide guitar unlike anything you've heard before. Backed by his 6-piece band including a full horn section, Ivan delivers raw, emotionally charged performances that connect two of the world's great music traditions — the blues of Chicago's South Side and the soulful sounds of Argentina. 🌟 Ivan Singh's incredible résumé includes: 🎸 Performing alongside Buddy Guy, Taj Mahal, and Kingfish Ingram at the Mahindra Blues Fest India (2023) 🎶 Chicago Blues Festival, Telluride Blues & Brews, Millennium Park Summer Series, Navy Pier Soul Fest, Square Roots Fest 🏆 Nominated "Best Blues Band" in Chicago by the Chicago Reader — 2023 AND 2024 🎸 Gibson Guitars Artist — featured in their 2024 campaign 📰 Featured in Rolling Stone Magazine (2023) 🌍 Tours across America, Europe, South America & Asia "Fusing the soulful rhythms of Argentine music with the raw energy of Chicago's iconic blues — Ivan Singh is a true ambassador of the blues, connecting cultures and transcending boundaries." 📌 Instagram: instagram.com/ivansinghok 🌐 ivansingh.net ⚠️ ONE LAST OUTDOOR FLING! ☀️🍂 September is winding down and the warm lakefront evenings won't last forever — this is your chance to soak in one last gorgeous outdoor night before Chicago fall takes over for good!
