Keb’ Mo’, Samantha Fish and Robert Randolph will headline The Big Easy Cruise 2027, organizers announced today. The floating festival is scheduled for January 16-23, 2027.

The weeklong cruise will feature performances from the three headliners alongside additional artists to be announced in coming months. The event combines live music with a Caribbean cruise experience, departing from a yet-to-be-disclosed port.

Keb’ Mo’, a five-time Grammy winner, brings his blend of blues, folk and R&B to the maritime stage. The California-based artist has released over 15 albums during his career spanning three decades.

Samantha Fish, known for her guitar work and vocals, joins the cruise following her latest album release and North American tour. The Kansas City native has been performing professionally since 2009.

Robert Randolph, frontman of Robert Randolph and the Family Band, rounds out the announced headliners. The pedal steel guitarist has collaborated with artists including Eric Clapton and Carlos Santana throughout his career.

The Big Easy Cruise has hosted similar events in previous years, featuring blues, roots, and Americana performers. Ticket sales and complete lineup details are expected to be released in the coming weeks.

The January cruise will visit multiple Caribbean ports during its seven-day journey. Onboard activities typically include artist meet-and-greets, workshops, and late-night jam sessions in addition to scheduled performances.
