JPR Live Session: Bhi Bhiman

Ways To Subscribe

BhiBhiman's musical style has drawn a diverse range of comparisons from Rodriguez and Woody Guthrie to Nina Simone and Bill Withers. An accomplished guitarist and clever lyricist, it is Bhiman’s unique voice that truly sets him apart.

Bhiman's sophomore LP, Rhythm & Reason, includes a lead single that debuted with a hilarious music video starring Key & Peele’s Keegan-Michael Key, and songs that range in subject matter from breakfast food to the life of militant iconoclast Huey P. Newton. It is this mix of humor and social commentary that has led critics to deem the album, “equal parts Curtis Mayfield and Richard Pryor."

As FM Network Program Director and Music Director, Eric oversees many aspects of JPR's broadcast day. He still hosts the occasional Open Air or classical music shift, and is the driving force behind JPR Live Sessions - our popular series of live in-studio music performances and conversations.
