AGMP presents January Blues Festival 2027 direct from Chicago, USA
Mud Morganfield a.k.a. Muddy Waters Jr.
+ special guests: TBC
+ DJ: Snowboy
The January Blues Festival celebrates its 10th anniversary year with the return of the eldest son of blues legend Muddy Waters, Mud Morganfield.
The eldest son of Muddy Waters, Mud has followed in his father's footsteps, keeping the traditional Chicago blues flame alight by singing Muddy's songs as well as his own originals in front of an all-star band of Chicago musicians.
Everything in Mud's musical life traces directly back to his father. "I was born in the blues, man. I used to have to tap music on the side of my head before I went to sleep. I've had music running through my being all my life, since I've been here."
Mud didn't emerge musically until the 2000s, when veteran blues singer Mary Lane gave him some of his earliest showcases on the West Side. His debut album was released in 2008. A three-time Blues Music Award nominee, his 2014 Severn Records release in collaboration with harmonica player Kim Wilson, "For Pops - A Tribute to Muddy Waters," earned him the award.
Host and DJ for the January Blues Festival at 229 London on 20 January 2027 at 19h is Snowboy, playing original blues 45s and more.
