Mississippi, The Birthplace Of American Music

Mississippi is the Birthplace of American Music - whether it is Charley Patton and Son House's interpretations of the Delta Blues, Elvis Presley and Rock 'n' Roll from Tupelo or Jimmie Rodgers the Father of Country Music from Meridian - America's musical tradition was born and refined in the culture and struggles of Mississippi.

Happy Birthday Elvis


A Mississippi Blues Trail marker will be placed Tuesday at the Tupelo birthplace of legendary musician Elvis Presley, on what would have been his 73rd birthday.
