When we think about the great live albums, we often think about the great live bands that made them….

Growing up in Colombia some 2200 miles away from Clarksdale, Mississippi, didn’t stop Carlos Elliot, Jr. from feeling a mystic connection the first time he heard Blues music…

There were three main musical guests slated to perform: RJ Harman & Company, Beautiful Bobby Blackmon, and Robert Randolph and the Family Band.

This album is good listening on many levels. The musicians are first class and so is the playing. Sound and production quality is excellent. What really seals the deal here is that this album is just a bunch of fun to listen to!

St. Louis blues pioneer Milton “Lindberg” Sparks and folklore legend “Stagger” Lee Shelton will be honored with markers this spring.

Mavis Staples, Trombone Shorty, Big George Brock and Mud Morganfield are among the performers…

I’m just gonna come flat out and say it: If you haven’t paid a visit to the Mississippi Delta yet, plan one now to this starkly beautiful, richly musical place.

Guitarist/singer Dudley Taft announces a May 7 release date for his new CD, Deep Deep Blue, coming from his own American Blues Artist Group Records. On Deep Deep Blue, Taft pulls together his influences – geographical, biographical and musical – and filters them through his blue soul. The result is a genre-busting slab of tunes, blending his Midwestern roots with his love of the blues, the British Invasion and Southern Rock, seasoned with songwriting and musicianship nurtured through 30-plus years as a musician.

We sat down with Reverend Peyton to talk about his new album, Between The Ditches, his “revolutionary” new underground blues tour featuring Alvin Youngblood Hart & Jimbo Mathis, delta blues finger picking giant Charley Patton!

Alvin Lee, the guitarist and singer for English blues-rock band Ten Years After has passed away.
