A Blues Maestro Redefining the Genre

Emanuel Casablanca, a native of Brooklyn, New York, emerges as a beacon of authenticity and passion in the realm of blues and blues-rock music. With his upcoming third studio album, "Hollywood Forever," poised for release on April 11, 2025, Casablanca continues to enthrall audiences with his unparalleled talent and boundless creativity.

 

Throughout his illustrious career, Casablanca has left an indelible mark on the music industry, collaborating with an impressive array of legendary musicians. From Grammy-nominated Eric Gales to world-renowned guitarist Paul Gilbert, and Blues Music Award winners Albert Castiglia and Jimmy Carpenter, Casablanca's discography reads like a who's who of the blues world. His previous albums have seen him join forces with the likes of Blues Music Award nominee Kat Riggins, Elliot Sharp Blues Music Award nominee Joanna Connor, bassist and producer Bill Laswell, and drummer Daxx Nielsen, among others.

 

But Casablanca's impact transcends mere musical collaborations. As an outlaw blues musician unafraid to confront societal injustices head-on, he has founded The Emanuel Casablanca Foundation, a platform dedicated to promoting human rights and social justice causes worldwide. Through the foundation, Casablanca seeks to raise awareness and support for nonprofit organizations addressing a myriad of issues, from civil rights to environmental sustainability via live performances and event production. One of these events include the Hudson Blues & Comedy Festival, which will premiere on Juneteenth 2025 in Hudson, New York.
