Blues guitarist Samantha Fish will be the namesake artist at the Cigar Box Guitar Festival in 2020, creating a what producer Collins Kirby calls “a marriage made in roots music heaven.”

Fish, of course, is known for playing her cigar box instrument regularly.

“I have included the Cigar Box guitar on a song or two on most of my albums, including my last single ‘Bullet Proof,'” Fish said via a press release. “The instrument may look limited but there are so many sounds and styles that we haven’t discovered yet. I am looking forward to making this one of the biggest events honoring the instrument as well as other acoustic instruments that can Rock.”

Additional performers for the Jan. 15-18 event include John Mooney, Jimbo Mathus, April Mae & the June Bugs and more.
