Description
Delta Blues is a specific Style and genre of early blues. Early players of this unique music, would use hard objects ranging from bottlenecks to jack knives to create an expressive sound that closely imitated the human voice. The music was first recorded in the 1920’s and heavily influenced the blues played along the Mississippi Delta.
The Mississippi Blues has been played on a multitude of factory and homemade instruments, ranging from cigar box guitars to modern 6 string resonator guitars. Players normally use open tunings, a slide and their innate creativity to create a classic sound still enjoyed by many.
