JP Oldfield embodies the spirit of a traveling juke joint throw out from a bygone era, offering a distinctive blend of melancholic deep south blues with a touch of vaudeville satire.
His performances are marked by a deep baritone voice and a commanding stage presence, drawing on the tradition of folk and blues to create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and fresh.
A true one-man band, JP Oldfield’s musical arsenal is anything but ordinary. In addition to his guitar playing, he brings an array of eccentric instruments into his performances, including a suitcase kick drum, kazoo, harmonica and even whistling. This eclectic mix adds a unique texture to his sound, allowing the echoes of past musical traditions to resonate in the present. Each performance feels like a journey through the past, blending nostalgia with a modern twist.
Through his music, JP Oldfield invites listeners to experience a rich tapestry of emotion and storytelling. Whether he is delivering a raw, personal song or sharing folklore-inspired tales, his performances are a celebration of the power of music to transport us across time and space.
With a knack for blending the old with the new, JP Oldfield keeps the spirit of the blues alive while adding his own original voice to the mix.
