For more than 25 years Kevin “B.F.” Burt has been electrifying audiences throughout the Midwest dispelling the myth that true blues has no roots in Iowa. His soul-inspired presentation is unique which consistently get him compared to a range of artists like Bill Withers and Aaron Neville, with the ability to build an audience rapport that has been compared to B.B. King. Kevin “B.F.” Burt was the big man of the 2018 International Blues Challenge as the bluesman representing the Central Iowa Blues Society, picking up three awards: First Place Solo/Duo, Best Solo/Duo Guitarist, and the Lee Oskar Award for Best Harmonica Player.
Little G Weevil is a guitarist, singer, songwriter, lyricist living in Atlanta, USA. He is internationally known for his authentic style heavily influenced by Southern retro Blues and Funk music. Weevil has released five highly acclaimed studio albums, and he is the 2013 solo winner of the Blues Foundation`s International Blues Challenge. He was nominated for USA Blues Music Award, Blues Blast Music Award and Independent Blues Award.
Kevin is a self-taught musician (vocals, harmonica, and guitar) whose smooth, warm vocal presentation sets a mood of relaxed exhilaration, with a welcome mixture of serious music and infectious humor audiences of all ages seem to enjoy. His voice and presence are powerful. His unique delivery ranges from the sweetest, fullest, juiciest come-on to the most playful growl. Though he performs between 325 and 400 shows a year, he holds nothing back night after night and audiences leave knowing that.
"Little G Weevil not only has a feel for bonafide blues styles, he plays them masterfully. From ballads that weave an indelible tapestry of music and words to a fingerpicking style reminiscent of Mississippi John Hurt he takes listeners on a journey through numerous blues styles and so much more." - Bill Wilson
Kevin Burt has won many awards and played many festivals both solo and with his band, the Instigators. His awards include Best Entertainer in Iowa City (three times) Best Band in Iowa City (three times) Iowa Blues Challenge Champions, Named as one of the top 25 unsigned blues bands in the world by the International Blues Challenge Competition.
