Four years later, he established his own record label, Pinto Blues Music. Since then, he has released five CDs, including <i>Repossession Blues</i> with UK bluesman Dave Thomas and his latest release, <i>Blues In The Wind</i>. Coleman has won a Living Blues Award for fan favorite, as well as garnered two nominations for outstanding harmonica. He has been named an Ohio Heritage Fellow. His performance embodies an American art form that has all but disappeared from the African-American music landscape and is certain to captivate blues lovers of all ages. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=NoParagraphStyle> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=NoParagraphStyle>Performing with Coleman will be Kevin Okey and D.C.
