Draw a line from New Orleans to Nashville, over to Memphis and back down to New Orleans, following the curves of the great Mississippi river, and you trace the Mojo Triangle. The southern states of America represent the very roots of Rock n' Roll, Jazz, The Blues and Country music, and therefore the birthplace of popular music as we know it today. From Albert King to Wynton Marsalis, Elvis Presley to Tina Turner, Howlin' Wolf, Fats Domino, Robert Johnson...the list of pioneers, innovators, stars and starmakers from within the triangle is endless. This thriving hotbed of multi-cultural influences cannot be overestimated in its contribution to the musical culture of the world.
Discover the story of this highly spiritual corner of the world, and the tales of music and musicians, poverty, famine, success and intrigue that surround its inhabitants past and present.
