Bobby Rush & North Mississippi Allstars

Modern Mississippi Hill Country band North Mississippi Allstars and blues legend Bobby Rush are co-headlining this unique event, with each artist performing separately before joining together to honor their Mississippi blues roots.

North Mississippi Allstars was started by brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson in 1996 as a loose collective of musicians from their North Mississippi home. They were inspired by their father Jim Dickinson as well as neighbors and musical elders of their community, including RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Otha Turner, and Fred McDowell. They have multiple Grammy® nominations for their acclaimed experimental albums, and the latest album, Still Shakin’, is out now.

The 91-year-old Bobby Rush is a three-time Grammy Award® winner for “Best Traditional Blues Album” for Porcupine Meat, Rawer than Raw, and 2024’s All My Love for You. He is also a 16-time Blues Music Awards winner (with 56 career nominations) and has been inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, Mississippi Musicians Hall of Fame and Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame.
