SUMMARY:Deep Roots: Live Downtown! Special Saturday show featuring Mohead
DESCRIPTION:BONUS SATURDAY SHOW! Deep Roots: Live Downtown! is pleased to offer a ‘bonus’ show during 50 Nights of Lights with Delta favorite\,  Mohead. Singer/songwriter Mohead has recorded for Rounder Records and was a staff writer for Universal Music Nashville\, where he co-wrote “Southern Women\,” a Billboard top 20 hit for the Wright Brothers\, with Kent Blazy. He has recorded over seven full length albums of original music and has numerous film and TV credits to his name. Mohead spent years touring\, performing over 200 dates a year with artists including Little Feat\, David Allen Coe\, the Allman Brothers\, Warren Haynes\, Billy Joe Shaver and Widespread Panic. Mohead is hailed as a writer/performer who is “steeped in Southern Comfort rather than counterfeiting it.” \nMohead’s latest project\, Mograss\, available on all streaming platforms\, is a slight departure from his southern rock past. Mograss mixes a behind the beat groove with bluegrass instrumentation\, featuring Blue Mother Tupelo’s Ricky Davis on dobro and GRAMMY® award winner Charlie Musselwhite on harmonica.

SUMMARY:Deep Roots: Live Downtown! - Harmony Gospel Quartet of Boyle
DESCRIPTION:The Harmony Gospel Quartet of Boyle\, Mississippi will have audiences feeling the spirit with a rousing show filled with Gospel favorites and joyous originals. \nStarted as a family musical ensemble\, the Harmony Quartet has evolved into something much bigger\, with some members moving on to work with well-known recording artists. Family patriarch Larry Williams said Harmony Quartet started out with his wife\, Barbara\, and all of their children some twenty-five years ago performing their trademark gospel music. “Barbara had to bow out of our group due to health reasons\, so right now the band consists of me\, my son Jermel and my daughter Zynpthia plus our other musicians–we’re a full band. We also take turns singing lead but Jermel is our main lead singer\,” said Williams. This is not just some casual family singing group getting together to perform for fun\, though–not by any stretch\, but it’s truly a family affair when it comes to the Harmony Quartet.

We have the cleanest band and the best attitude and stage presence of any band I’ve ever seen\, and that’s the reason we have been going for so long. People know when they hire us they are going to get a great show and they don’t have to worry about anything.” \nOpening the show will be country singer/songwriter Mississippi Mason from Columbus\, MS. \n \n
