About Me

A "real-deal" blues man from a small Arkansas town on the banks of the Ouachita river...Artis 'Bluesman" Bivens hails back to the old-style traveling blues men of an earlier time. Nothing slick, or over-produced about his music...he just plays what he feels. He's at home playing at house parties, busking, or hitting the stage at local jams & open mics.
