Roy Book Binder Concert History

Roy Book Binder (born in New York City on 5 October 1943; died 3 March 2026) was an American blues guitarist, singer-songwriter and storyteller remembered as a student and friend of the Reverend Gary Davis and equally at home with blues and ragtime. He was known to shift from open tunings to slide arrangements to original compositions, with both traditional and self-styled licks. His storytelling was another characteristic that made his style unique.
