They’ve both earned GRAMMYs for their solo work, but now that they’ve teamed up, bluesmen Taj Mahal and Keb’ Mo’ seem unstoppable.
Taj Mahal, Keb’ Mo’ Perform “Diving Duck Blues”
The duo took to the GRAMMY stage at the 60th GRAMMY Awards Premiere Ceremony on Jan. 28. 2018, in New York to show the assembled crowd how it’s done. They performed “Diving Duck Blues,” a gritty number from their Best Contemporary Blues GRAMMY-nominated album, TajMo.
The Los Angeles-based delta blues musician reflects on the multiyear journey and creative team that helped him earn a 60th GRAMMY nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album.
“I don’t think about winning, I stop at the nomination,” says GRAMMY-winning delta blues musician Keb’ Mo’ of his latest GRAMMY nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album. “I figure, go with the nomination and celebrate that, go to the GRAMMYs, smile … and if something happens, then … OK.”
