Mississippi Soulful Sounds

The Delta in Mississippi is where more than 100 blues singers and musicians such as Howlin' Wolf, Son House, Charlie Patton, Ma Rainey and Muddy Waters got their start, inspiring the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, and Eric Clapton. The blues traveler can learn about Mississippi music at the blues museums in Clarksdale, Greenwood, Leland, and the Dockery Plantation in Cleveland.

In Meridian of the Pines Region find the home of the "Father of Country Music", Jimmie Rodgers, whose career is celebrated at the museum bearing his name. Visit the town of Tupelo in the Hills Region where you will find the house where Elvis Presley lived as a boy, then stop at the museum right next door to see local Elvis memorabilia. Graceland and Memphis are less than two hours away. Whatever your taste may be, Mississippi music has the sound you're looking for.
