Interview: Tom Ball


Harmonica phenom/singer Tom Ball and guitar wizard Kenny Sultan have charmed audiences all over the world for decades with their good-time acoustic blues music. Their long-time Sunday residency at Cold Spring Tavern has been hugely popular for nearly forty years, and during that time they have also hit virtually every other Santa Barbara venue, from nearly-forgotten dive bars to the Santa Barbara Bowl.

Tom and Kenny have released eight albums together, and have been featured on multiple radio programs, film scores, TV soundtracks, and commercials. Tom has also played on over 200 albums by other artists including Kenny Loggins and Jeff Bridges, and Kenny was honored by Martin Guitars with the Signature Model 00018KS. They are a true Santa Barbara treasure!

This interview with Tom Ball was for a preview article for noozhawk.com for Tom and Kenny’s 40th Anniversary party at the Lobero Theatre in Santa Barbara on 10/26/19. It was done by phone on 10/10/19. (Skip Saenger photo)
