This New Morning concert in July, 2009 captures Robben Ford's genius in a truly unprecedented manner. Backed by drummer Toss Panos and bassist Travis Carlton, Robben's unique style asserts itself above and beyond his rock, jazz, fusion and blues influences.
In late 2006, the New Morning presented an incredible meeting of legendary blues players specially flown in from Nashville & Tokyo, to live it up in Paris. As the climax of the club's 25th Anniversary Festival - and a birthday gift from the musicians - this Franco-American guitar summit brought together for the first time the members of Autour du Blues (the cream of France's top studio musicians) and two of America's most brilliant guitar heroes, Larry Carlton and Robben Ford. The show was a smash success with the people of Paris.
Multitalented guitarist Robben Ford performs live at Paris's New Morning club in this May, 2001 concert. Joined by keyboardist Louis Pardini, bassist Jimmy Earl and drummer Brannen Temple, Ford showcases his incomparable guitar skills and mastery of blues-rock.
It all started in the bay area of San Francisco in the late sixties, when he was bitten by the bug . . . Robben Ford accompanied by the legendary bluesman Charley Musselwhite on guitar.

As well as this, his electrifying live performances with his band "The Blue Line" make Robben Ford of the most distinctive personalities in blues today.
