South Memphis String Band
Season 11, Episode 5 of 13
Luther Dickinson, Jimbo Mathus & Alvin Youngblood Hart, come together as an uber-talented roots super-trio to honor music traditions handed down from string and jug bands in the Mississippi delta area. Living Blues Magazine writes "Luther, Alvin, and Jimbo sound like three old friends swapping songs on a porch and having a grand time doing it." The band's kinship, forged by their respect for the forebears of blues and roots music, shines through in this encore episode as they play homage to legends such as Furry Lewis and the Mississippi Sheiks.
