Singer, songwriter and bottleneck slide guitarist Catfish Keith (a.k.a. Keith Daniel Kozacik) heard the blues of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf on the radio while growing up in Indiana steel mill towns, but it was the deep country style of Son House that inspired him to embark on a career as a bluesman. For two decades he has been of electrifying audiences with his innovative, foot-stomping deep Delta blues.

A two-time W. C. Handy Award nominee for Best Acoustic Blues Album, the dynamic Catfish makes his National steel-bodied guitar sing with quirky, percussive fingerpicking patterns and wildly expressive chord bending, as he plays a house-shaking mixture of classics and instrumental originals from his latest album, A Fist Full of Riffs (Solid Air).
