Deep in the Mississippi Delta lies the birthplace of one of the earliest and most revered forms of American music. Charlie Patton, Son House, Robert Johnson, Bessie Smith, Muddy Waters—these giants of Delta Blues drew their music from the raw materials of their lives and turned it loose for all the world to hear.

Through evocative first-person storytelling, imagery, sound, and an unmatched collection of personal artifacts, the Delta Blues Museum traces the deep roots of the Blues and its legacy as a pure and soulful art form that continues to inspire audiences today.
