Songs from the Delta
Dockery Farms is widely regarded as the place where Delta blues was born, and markers along the Mississippi Blues Trail now point to places tied to that music. The blues are about telling the truth plainly, which is a fine way to tell your own story too. What music played in your house growing up? Who sang along, and who only thought they could? Write it the way you would say it on a porch with friends on a warm evening.
