Reverend Robert B. Jones Sr. will be bringing his twenty+ years of music, humor, and storytelling to selected Birmingham Public Library (BPL) locations.
Jones was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1956, but grew up in a Southern-influenced household: his father was from West Pointe, Mississippi, and his mother from Conecuh County, Alabama. His grandmother’s record collection exposed him to all types of music when he was growing up, especially the blues.
Jones’s act combines storytelling, vocals, instrumental music, and artwork to explore the earliest known aspects of African American culture to showcase the music and stories that came before the blues.
