His slide guitar, harmonica and plaintive voice won over director Atom Egoyan, who hand-picked some of his songs for the soundtracks to his films, Calendar and Exotica. Fusing the raw energy of blues with rock'n'roll power, Studebaker John came up with a Chicago blues that rubs elbows with boogie, swamp, swing and Latin grooves, thrilling fans from here to Europe. It's the kind of irresistible groove you can expect to hear in American roadhouses... and at the Festival!
