Red Garland.
Jazz with strongly bloozy roots, I's say. Very nice work on on the Miles 5 "In" sessions, and also as a leader (see esp. "Groovy"). Perhaps unwisely, I prefer him to Peterson. Probably not in the same category as Evans -- who is? -- but Evans a very different player, who seems to me father from what you are looking for.
