This world-class, internationally known American Bluesman, educator and songwriter was born to loving Mississippi parents on the Southside of Chicago.Jones is one of a few living African American Bluesmen to have a tribute album of his compositions done by a band on a different continent. Jones has performed his compositions worldwide, from The University of Hawaii to The Smithsonian Institute. In January 2020, the National Association of Music Merchants invited him to host a lecture on the impact of Blues Pedagogy.
