MAP OF A BLUE CITY (2025)

Album Credits & Lyrics HERE
Album Announcement Press Release HERE

“Beautiful… This record really ups his game…(his) ability to mix artistic exploration with plain-spoken profundity in ways that very few artists have been able to pull off” - NPR Music

"Ribot needs no introduction. But nothing prepares us for Map of a Blue City... Beyond jazz, steeped in humanity... an album of the year." **** - Jazzwise Magazine 

”Classy, uneasy listening.” - The Observer

"A subdued, compelling album... the intimate intensity of a midnight conversation." **** - MOJO Magazine

”Hopefully this won’t be Ribot’s only record like this—but in a career that spans nearly 50 years, he prefers to keep listeners on their toes.” - Brooklyn Vegan

”Inspirational guitarist for Waits, Costello et al steps forward as a dusky singer-songwriter dispensing gnarled 2am wisdom in a variety of genres from desert blues to drum ‘n’ bass.” - Uncut Magazine

"Map of a Blue City is the closest Ribot has gotten to a singer-songwriter album. It suits him." - The Wire
