B B King Day 2017

The third annual B B King day will be Sept 7th, 2017.

The symposium will be at Mississippi Valley State University all day Thursday, the 7th. During this event you see dozens of legendary Blues musicians from Chicago, Memphis and the Delta region participate in panel discussions. This year's subject is "The Chittlin' Circuit and it's effect on American Music". You will have the opportunity to join in the discussion as well. The sessions are separated by live music performances.

Thursday night there will be a live "JamSession" at B.B. King's historic Club Ebony in Indianola, MS. You will never have the opportunity to see these musicians playing together anywhere else! The Club Ebony is part of the B.B. King Museum and Interpretive Center and you should definitely plan to arrive early and tour that facility. It is an amazing collection of memorabilia and displays of B.B King's life story.

The best part of this event is the fact that it is all FREE!

If you plan to go, you should make hotel reservations ASAP as they are selling out fast. We will see you there!
