Jonathan Kalb Band
Overview
I play blues and soul and come from the roots but mix shuffles, funk, soul and other genres in with it as I also have played jazz, rock and roll, country, folk and have a wide repertoire most importantly I like to groove so the music swings and is funky. My website has videos of a live performance headlining a festival in France go to video page. website: (link hidden) Check out live videos as well as Bio, as I have co-billed and worked with many well known artists in several different genres.

May 28, 2026Excellent band/ excellent gig for our anniversary
The band were great, excellent tunes and playlist. Our guests were buzzing. Thank you!
They were so flexible too as our lunch overran a little, but they were so accommodating and cooperative also in a small venue. Highly recommend for a blues trio!

June 12, 2025An amazing experience for all!
The Jonathan Kalb Band brought joy, energy, magic, and wonderful blues music to our adult day health care program for the visually impaired. Their sound was perfect for our clients who are still talking about it, our staff too! Jonathan provided background stories to the songs as well. They made sure everyone was having a good time, their energy was contagious, they had us all dancing to the music. We were all uplifted by their performance. Jonathan took the time to meet and discuss blues music and musicians with a client with a lifelong passion for the blues. It was heartwarming and will always be cherished. Thank you, Jonathan and the band, for providing an unforgettable live music event!
