Why this project?

The interest in Blues and Jazz is growing rapidly in Europe. European audiences know and appreciate a lot of the   contemporary blues musicians. People want to learn about the roots of the modern rock and pop-music. As a side effect there is a growing interest in the culture of the Mississippi Delta, the culture from which the blues originated.

Although there is much info available on the internet, it is not so obvious for young European listeners to deduce the overall story.  There is little literature that explains the culture of the Delta. And it is not obvious for young Europeans to visit the Delta.

So, there is surely need of a good road book, a roadmap to visit the Delta. In addition, this roadmap needs to give info about locations, music and most important: living blues people in Mississippi. It has to tell the story of the blues and the people of the Mississippi Delta.
