Pokey LaFarge is a charismatic American roots troubadour whose timeless blend of early jazz, country blues and Western swing has made him one of the most distinctive live performers around.
For two decades, Pokey LaFarge has carved out a singular path as one of America's most distinctive roots musicians. Born in Bloomington, Illinois, and long based in St Louis, he draws on early jazz, ragtime, country blues, Western swing and folk to create a sound that feels both wonderfully old-fashioned and entirely his own. His big break came in the early 2010s, when he toured with Jack White and signed to White's Third Man Records, which released his self-titled album Pokey LaFarge (2013).
From there he went from strength to strength, with Something in the Water (2015) reaching the top 30 of the US country albums chart, followed by the eclectic Rock Bottom Rhapsody (2020) and the genre-hopping Rhumba Country (2024). Beyond the studio, he has appeared on screen in the series "Sun Records" and the film The Devil All the Time. But it's on stage where LaFarge truly comes alive — a sharply dressed, freewheeling showman whose warm, charismatic performances have won him a devoted following across the UK, Europe and beyond.
