Grammy awards 2018, Best traditional blues album -ehdokas.

"Eric Bibb is one of the best bluesmen still living and active. With mainly acoustic stringed instruments and his strong but smooth voice, his latest album, Migration Blues, is a textual marvel, but more importantly, its content reaches through decades of tradition to help make sense of today. (...) Personal and political storytelling, social criticism and perseverance through struggles are some of the themes that make folk music forms so captivating and enduring. Eric Bibb's Migration Blues offers plenty of that, and his whisky-smooth voice and virtuosic guitar convey it all perfectly." - Peter Ellman, exclaim.ca, 29. 3. 2017.
