Fantastic Negrito is a powerhouse performer whose live shows are charged with emotion,
intensity, and connection. Blending Delta blues, soul, funk, and rock, he delivers dynamic sets
built on rhythm, storytelling, and fearless expression. The Oakland-born artist — a three-time
GRAMMY winner — has earned a reputation for transforming every show into a deeply
engaging, unforgettable experience.
From Glastonbury to Newport Folk, Fantastic Negrito captivates audiences with his mix of grit,
humor, and raw honesty. His performances turn struggle into celebration, and his songs take on
new life each night, reshaped by the moment and the crowd.
Every show is a testament to the power of live music to inspire, challenge, and bring people
together.
Since winning NPR’s inaugural Tiny Desk Contest, Fantastic Negrito has shared stages with the
likes of Bruce Springsteen, Chris Cornell, and Primus, and has collaborated in the studio with
Sting, E-40, Tank and the Bangas, and many others.
He is also busy producing other artists featured on his independent record label, Storefront
Records.
