J.B. Hutto & The New Hawks was an American blues band led by singer and guitarist J.B. Hutto (1926 – 1983).
Formed in the late 1970s after he moved from Chicago to Boston, Hutto recruited a new band to succeed his earlier band J.B. Hutto & The Hawks. The band recorded studio albums for the Varrick label. Their 1983 Varrick album Slippin' & Slidin', the last studio album of Hutto's career and later reissued on CD as Rock With Me Tonight, has been described as "near-perfect".
Hutto was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame two years after his death.
