Grammy nominated blues and roots soul singer Candice Ivory, pays homage to this iconic Southern music tradition- and the pioneering artists such as Memphis Minnie.
Keeping this music tradition alive is encapsulated and continued in her forthcoming album “New Southern Vintage” out on September 12th.
Listen to a re-imagined version of “Catfish Blues” featuring living blues legend Jimmy “Duck” Holmes amongst others.
Check out the “Southern Surrealism” of her art too-which feature in the music video.
Bright vibrant colors depict daily life in the song as well as the characters. Layered colors and textures illustrate the lyrics in a very effective montage.
Set against the heartbeat of the song - you feel transported to an earlier time in the Deep South -and its very moving.
