Sean Chambers

Sean Chambers…

began his career in 1998 as the guitarist and bandleader for the legendary Hubert Sumlin, with whom he toured regularly until 2003. The British magazine Guitarist described him as “one of the top 50 blues guitarists of the last century.” His guitar-driven blues rock is reminiscent of greats like Gary Moore and Jeff Healey, earning him an induction into the Florida Music Hall of Fame.

His first solo album, Ten Til Midnight, spent over three months on the US Blues Charts right out of the gate. The follow-up live album, Live from the Long Island Blues Warehouse, received rave reviews and was awarded the Best Blues Album of 2011, among other accolades. His eighth studio album, That’s What I’m Talkin About, was released in 2020 as a tribute to his mentor, the late Hubert Sumlin.

In 2023, shortly after the death of Savoy Brown’s founder, Kim Simmonds, Chambers teamed up with Savoy Brown’s rhythm section, featuring Pat De Salvo on bass and Garnet Grimm on drums. Chambers and the members of Savoy Brown had become friends during a shared festival performance in 2019. Since both Sean Chambers and Savoy Brown are signed to the same record label, Quarto Valley Records, the collaboration felt natural to all three musicians. Kim Simmonds himself fully supported the trio, giving them his blessing shortly before his death on December 13, 2022.

“Guitarist Chambers achieves the distinctly American blues/soul/country/rock sound that the Stones used to aspire to long ago.” - Jerry Shriver, USA TODAY
