The True Birthplace of America's Music
The blues is more than music. It’s a state of mind. A true mixture of mood, melody and melancholy. And nowhere is that more apparent than the place the blues was born—and gave birth itself to country music and later rock & roll.
Mississippi is home to a staggering number of noteworthy notes in the musical melody that is the history of the blues, and the Mississippi Blues Trail is your map to discovering them for yourself.
