M For Mississippi: A Road Trip through the Birthplace of the Blues

"We planned this road-trip movie for two years," says co-producer Roger Stolle. "We avoided big concert stages and rock star narrators in favor of intimate house parties and rockin' Delta juke joints. The results speak for themselves." The 94-minute film M For Mississippi was made by director Damien Blaylock and features such seminal contemporary Mississippi blues artists as James "T-Model" Ford, Robert "Wolfman" Belfour, Robert "Bilbo" Walker, and others. "We aimed to capture the essence of the Delta's blues survivors and show why the blues simply had to come from a place like Mississippi," says co-producer Jeff Konkel.
