His first film role was playing a character actor in the horror fantasy film Escape from Tomorrowland,[1] a 2013 American independent horror film written and directed by Randy Moore in his directorial debut.

Artistry
Personal life
Spirit is the grandson of Robert Blue Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) an American bluesguitarist, singer, and songwriter. His landmark recordings in 1936 and 1937 display a combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that has influenced later generations of musicians. He is now recognized as a master of the blues, particularly the Delta blues style. Legend has it that Johnson took his guitar to the crossroads of Highways 49 and 61 in Clarksdale, Mississippi where the devil retuned his instrument in exchange for his soul. He returned home with a formidable technique and a mastery of the blues, mesmerizing the world before his death.
