Luke Winslow-King Balzuweit (born March 12, 1983) is an American guitarist, multi- instrumentalist, singer, composer, and lyricist based out of Cadillac, Michigan, who plays vintage blues and jazz music and is known for his slide guitar work. He is a music traditionalist, playing a mixture of “people’s music” and improvisational jazz based in collective improvisation, with influences from New Orleans, where he was based for 15 years, that includes jazz, Delta blues, ragtime, pre-war American folk, with influences from diverse sources like Béla Bartók and Antonín Dvořák’s String Quartet No. 12 (American String Quartet) and Woody Guthrie.

The theft meant Winslow-King had to spend time in New Orleans. During the weeks he was there, when they got the van back, but no instruments, Winslow-King fell in love with the city, and in 2001 decided to permanently relocate to New Orleans. He knew the soul singer John Boutté of the band ¡Cubanismo! during their stop at Mackinaw Island, and soon got a first-hand immersion into the local music scene, often busking on the street and playing with various bands and musicians – like “Washboard Chaz” Leary, George Porter, Jr., Paul Sanchez’s “Nine Lives” project, Roberto Luti, The Loose Marbles Jazz Band – in the city.
