John Németh

Boise, Idaho is hardly the place anyone would conjure up as a hotbed of soul music.

But for John Boise, Idaho is hardly the place anyone would conjure up as a hotbed of soul music.

But for John Németh, its where his love for the genre beganand the starting point for a journey thats taken him from his first gigs fronting a teenaged band to five Blues Music Award nominations in 2013 alone.

Its where this preternaturally talented son of a Hungarian immigrant gained his early chops on the harmonica, building on the style of rootsy heroes like Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson. Némeths first paid performance came in 1991, when he was hired to perform drinking songs for a pinochle luncheon held by the Catholic Daughters of America before setting his sights on the Boise club scene, where, for nearly a decade, he played seven nights a week at local pubs, taverns, joints, and parties. John Németh has been on top of the music scene ever since.
