Born Castro Coleman in McComb, Miss., Mr. Sipp -- “The Mississippi Blues Child” -- is a true down-home Delta blues artist, having first picked up a guitar at age 6.

Coleman spent 22 years as a performer and producer of Gospel music, but he changed direction with a solo blues debut album, “It’s My Guitar” (2013), in which he sang all the vocals and played all the instruments.

In 2014, he won the International Blues Challenge, and has since won a string of awards for his albums, which include “Mississippi Blues Child” (2015), “Back to the Roots” (2018, with his gospel quartet, The True Believers” and “Sippnotized” (2021).

In 2014, he played Les Buie, James Brown’s first guitar player, in the movie “Get On Up.” Whether he’s performing Gospel or blues, Mr. Sipp is the real deal.
