Event information
Calstock Arts is thrilled to welcome back Mississippi MacDonald, an English Soul-Blues singer/songwriter/guitarist. In 2024, he won 2 UK Blues Federation Awards – Traditional Blues Artist Of The Year and Acoustic Blues Act Of The Year.
Since his signing to APM Records in 2021, he has appeared on BBC Radio 2's Blues Show with Cerys Matthews and has played extensively in the UK and the US including a Washington State Blues Society showcase on Beale Street during the International Blues Challenge, appearances on King Biscuit Time (Helena AK), and Radio Memphis.
In May 2024, Mississippi was part of the Take Me To The River All Stars along with William Bell (Stax), Hi Rhythm, Jools Holland and Eric Gales.
Mississippi's first record for APM, "Do Right, Say Right" was named in the top 10 Blues Albums of 2022 by Mojo Magazine, and was album of the year on HRH Blues Radio.
Mississippi MacDonald's blues are authentic, heartfelt, and reflect a lifetime of learning from the greats
