Blues harmonica master James Montgomery has spent over five decades cementing his place among the genre’s greats. A former member of the Johnny Winter Band, Montgomery’s fiery playing earned praise from The Nashville Tennessean, who described both Winter and Montgomery as “blues masters of the first and highest degree.” Whether collaborating with Kid Rock, jamming with Mick Jagger, or fronting his own band since 1970, Montgomery brings undeniable energy and authenticity to every performance. Raised in Detroit, he learned directly from legends like James Cotton and John Lee Hooker, and quickly rose to prominence in Boston alongside Aerosmith and J. Geils Band, eventually landing a multi-album deal with Capricorn Records.
Throughout his career, Montgomery has shared stages with blues and rock royalty including B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Bruce Springsteen, and the Allman Brothers. He’s also been part of the Blues Brothers Band, Commander Cody, and recorded on Grammy-nominated projects with Johnny Winter. Known for assembling powerhouse supergroups for charity, Montgomery has worked with Steven Tyler, Alice Cooper, Huey Lewis, and many more. He continues to tour with a stellar band, remains active in social causes, and is currently co-producing two documentaries—including one on his mentor James Cotton, a finalist for the Library of Congress Ken Burns Prize for Film.
