On Thursday, 26 February, Byron Bay will once again feel the fire of the blues as the Kingfish Ingram Hard Road Tour arrives at The Green Room. Following a sold-out 2025 tour and a legendary breakout performance at Bluesfest Byron Bay, the Grammy-winning sensation is back. This highly anticipated return features his most ambitious work to date—the new album, Hard Road.

A New Evolution of the Blues

The Hard Road album represents a bold step forward for Christone “Kingfish” Ingram. Produced by the renowned Tom Hambridge alongside Patrick “Guitar Boy” Hayes and Nick Goldston, the record pushes traditional boundaries. By infusing classic blues with elements of rock, funk, R&B, and soul, Kingfish creates a sound that is both ancestral and modern.

Furthermore, his live performances are known for being extraordinary. During the Kingfish Ingram Hard Road Tour, fans can expect a combination of jaw-dropping guitar solos and soul-stirring ballads. The setlist will showcase fresh tracks from the new record alongside fan favorites from his previous albums, Kingfish, 662, and Live in London.

Special Guest: Ash Grunwald

To make the evening even more special, the legendary Ash Grunwald will be supporting the night. As a premier Australian bluesman, Grunwald has a reputation for raw, roots-driven performances that shake audiences to their core. His unmistakable voice and gritty guitar playing serve as the perfect complement to Kingfish’s blistering sound. Together, these two powerhouses will transform The Green Room into a sanctuary of blues and soul.
