GRAMMY® Award-winner Christone “Kingfish” Ingram returns with Hard Road, his most emotionally charged album to date. Leading the charge is Voodoo Charm, a blistering first single that blends Ingram’s signature guitar fury with funk-soaked swagger. It’s the kind of track built to bring a room to its feet, announcing the next chapter in Kingfish’s evolution with boldness and bite. The track kicks off a powerful album that pulls from heartbreak, identity shifts, and the strain of balancing fame with authenticity. With production from Patrick “Guitar Boy” Hayes, Nick Goldston, Tom Hambridge, and executive production by Ric Whitney and Kingfish himself, “Hard Road” stretches blues into new emotional territory. Ingram said:
I’m definitely excited to drop the first track from Hard Road. ‘Voodoo Charm’ is a high-tempo one that I look forward to playing live, and I also think it will set the stage for what’s to come with my third studio album. I hope people dig it and have some real anticipation for what’s in store.
Out September 26 via his own Red Zero Records, a limited run of “Hard Road” in Purple & Gold Swirl vinyls, completed with 100 Golden Ticket inserts for free show access. From the dark confessionals of Bad Like Me to the soulful ache of Nothin’ But Your Love, the album feels like a diary cracked open and laced with distortion. Kingfish will take The Hard Road Tour overseas this fall and return for a legendary start to 2026 with appearances on the Rhythm & Blues Cruise and Jam Cruise. Kingfish isn’t just playing blues, he’s reinventing it. Let us know your thoughts on “Voodoo Charm” and connect with Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram on FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, TWITTER, and YOUTUBE,
