Kevin Roosevelt Moore (born October 3, 1951), known as Keb’ Mo’, is an American blues musician. He is a singer, guitarist and songwriter, living in Nashville, Tennessee. He has been described as “a living link to the seminal Delta blues that travelled up the Mississippi River and across the expanse of America.” His post-modern blues style is influenced by many eras and genres, including folk, rock, jazz, pop and country. The moniker “Keb Mo” was coined by his original drummer, Quentin Dennard, and picked up by his record label as a “street talk” abbreviation of his given name.

Keb’ Mo’ is the second studio album by Delta blues artist Keb’ Mo’. Commonly thought of as his debut, the artist previously released an album in 1980, Rainmaker, under his birth name “Kevin Moore” (of which “Keb’ Mo'” is a variation).
