This is so cool! Not one, but TWO of our venues in Clarksdale made it into Rolling Stone magazine! The Blues Hound Flat would make the perfect place to rest while you journey through Mississippi's Must-See Music Venues! Contact us or look us up on Airbnb!

Known as the ‘birthplace of American Music,’ the state where B.B. King, Faith Hill, and Rae Sremmurd got their start is still a bucket list destination for live music fans of all backgrounds.

Clarksdale’s own Christone "KINGFISH" Ingram is featured on the cover of Guitar World! Very cool!

Been a reader & fan of Guitar World since I’d say 10 years old. Even still have a couple of GW issues w/Prince on the cover at home. Really appreciative & blown away to be featured on one of the covers for the Sept ‘22 “Hottest New Guitarists” issue. Dig this photo a lot… thx Jen Rosenstein Photography. Also heads up… been working with my Fender crew on some exciting new projects… look forward to telling you all more about things very soon.

Y’all catch The Blues Trail Revisited Podcast?

Following the trail he explored in search of the roots of the Blues back in 1971, film producer/director Ted Reed revisited those places today and found where the Blues is alive, now more than ever.

His new film, “The Blues Trail Revisited,” is the foundation for this podcast, and in partnership with Visit Clarksdale, uses Mississippi’s Delta region as the jumping off point for shows about the home of the Blues. Showcasing the music and the people who make the blues eternally alive, each episode brings Ted’s road of discovery to music and history fans everywhere.

I see fields of green...in December?! Yes: that's 'winter wheat' beside a former cotton gin. It's sown in fall for an early summer harvest. Its first 'vegetative' phase is hardy through frost, and actually needs cold temperatures to trigger the reproductive phase that produces the wheat that feeds us. This 'vernalization' of fall growth, winter hibernation, then spring flowering is an inspiring metaphor for us humans!

You may see more of it throughout the Delta as prices improved and some farmers 'double-crop' -- alternating a second crop, usually soybeans, in the same field that year.

Crop rotation is also good for the soil. Locals may recognize the King & Anderson gin in the background here (visitors: find it on Friars Point Road just north of CCC and Clarksdale), a reminder of agriculture's ongoing transformation. Cotton remains the county's biggest crop -- but this winter wheat is one more way Delta farmers are modernizing ag and building more profitable and sustainable business here.
