Pioneering bluesman R.L. Burnside liked to joke that Mississippi has four eyes and still can’t see. But as long as your hearing is good, you’ve likely heard some of the best American music come out of the Magnolia State. The Delta region is considered the birthplace of blues, and Grammy winner Cedric Burnside brings the rhythmic sounds of his birthright to his latest release Hill Country Love. The album title is a nod to the Hill Country Blues style played by greats like Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside, Cedric’s grandfather. Get into the groove with a sound that the younger Burnside has occupied since he first went on tour playing drums for his grandfather at age 13.
