2024 DCWJBF Blues Headliner: John Németh

Five-time Blues Music Award winner John Németh will headline the Delaney Chevrolet Westsylvania Jazz and Blues Festival (DCWJBF) May 25 in downtown Indiana, Pennsylvania. Admission to the festival is free.

Németh, whose May Be The Last Time was named Traditional Blues Album of the Year at the 2023 Blues Music Awards, demonstrates an “uncanny ability to skillfully blend retro and modern blues and soul into compelling music that is simultaneously old and new.”

Other CV highlights include Love Me Tonight (2009) and Name The Day (2010) reaching #6 on the Billboard Blues Chart. Leave The Light On with The Love Light Orchestra, a side project that Németh co-founded, was the country’s number one air-played blues album in 2022.

Németh will join jazz headliner Howie Alexander appearing on the lineup courtesy of the Pittsburgh International Jazz Festival (PIJF). More lineup updates to come!
