 “...a skilled guitarist, perfectly mastering Piedmont blues fingerpicking and slide guitar.” – Soul Bag Magazine

This year, NC State LIVE and the Gregg Museum of Art & Design are joining forces to present concerts focused on community connection and well-being.

John “Lakota John” Locklear is a living representation of the musical cultures of southeastern North Carolina. He is a member of the Lumbee Tribe who combines the blues with the indigenous music of his ancestors. Lakota John first picked up the harmonica at age seven, then the guitar. At age 10, intrigued by the sound of the slide guitar, he bought a glass slide, placed it on his pinky finger, and has been sliding ever since. Mama Tonya, Papa John and Sister Layla join him to form a proud Lumbee Nation family of talented musicians.
