Having performed on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" and "The Caverns" on PBS, Buffalo Nichols looks to bring the blues of the past into the future. Nichols has recently released his self-titled debut album, as Nichols explains, "Part of my intent is putting more Black stories into the genres of folk and blues. While acknowledging the joy, exuberance and triumph contained in the blues," Nichols looks intently at the genre's origins, which harken back to complicated and dire circumstances for Black Americans. Even upbeat numbers like "Back On Top" call to mind the ominous juke-joint growl of John Lee Hooker.
