Listen to Marcus King Jam with North Mississippi Allstars at Wanee Block Party – 3/23/2019 AUD

Wanee Music Festival’s annual run came to an end this year. Last year, the organizers of the festival announced that the festival wouldn’t be happening in 2019 and in it’s stead would be a two day block party in Fort Lauderdale at a few different venues.

While a far cry from the Wanee Festival, the black party created many memorable moments. One of those moments came on the second night during the North Mississippi Allstars set. Towards the end of a lengthy festival set, Marcus King joined NMA for some face-melting blues. First up was a cover of Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads.” Next up was the Woody Guthrie tune that the Dead popularized, “Goin’ Down the Road Feeling Bad.” Another Dead favorite, “Deep Elem Blues” followed before NMA and King jammed on “ML (Goin’ Home).”

Listen to North Mississippi Allstars Jam-Packed Wanee Set – 4/20/2018 Full Show AUD

Wanee may have been a few weeks ago, but the recordings continue to pour in. The latest, courtesy of Z-Man, is the guest-galore North Mississippi Allstars set.

While sit-ins are the norm at Wanee, NMA’s set was a special treat. Luther and the crew welcomed six guests over the course of their set to sit in on a variety of originals and covers. With a sit-in on “All Night Long > Turn On Your Lovelight,” JoJo Herman of Widespread Panic on keyboards and Jack Ryan of Marcus King Band on drums were the first to guests of the set.

Other highlights include Grahame Lesh and Jason Crosby on a couple of familiar tunes including “Deep Elem Blues” and “Goin’ Down The Road Feelin’ Bad,” Marcus King lending his talents to “Crossroads” and finally the “We Bid You Goodnight” encore with tons of Tom Petty references.

Listen to North Mississippi Allstars Jam on Hendrix and Grateful Dead in Nashville – 9/9/2017 Full Show AUD

The North Mississippi Allstars are marching across the US on a massive fall tour schedule that includes gigs from Colorado to Dallas to NYC. They will cross paths with JJ Grey and Mofro, Galactic and the Magpie Salute. One of the most anticipated shows of the fall is NMA’s gig at the Beacon Theater during the Tedeschi Trucks Band’s run. Last night, North Mississippi Allstars brought their gritty brand of swamp blues to Nashville, TN to the outdoor venue Musician’s Corner at Centennial Park.

NMA is out on the road in support of an album they released in the spring titled Prayer for Peace. NMA’s line-up this tour includes Luther Dickinson on guitar and vocals, Cody Dickinson on drums, keyboards, guitar, and vocals, Dominic Davis on bass and Rob Walbourne on drums.

The Allstars plaid tunes from their new albums and plenty of other originals during the show. And of course they busted out a few familiar covers. Among the covers were the Grateful Dead’s “Deep Elem Blues” and Jimi Hendrix’s “Hear My Train A Comin’.” Also, NMA put a few notable teases in the blues standard “Rollin’ And Tumblin'” including “Sunshine of Your Love” and “Spoonful.”
