Robert Johnson, the legendary blues musician, was born in Hazlehurst, Mississippi, 113 years ago. His life is steeped in myth and mystery, with one of the most enduring tales being that he made a pact with the devil at the infamous Crossroads in the Delta. According to the legend, Johnson exchanged his soul for supernatural musical talent. Despite having only 29 recorded songs and a tragically short life of 27 years, his impact on the music industry is timeless. His haunting voice, masterful slide guitar skills, and soulful compositions have left an indelible mark on blues and rock music. Whether it’s the eerie falsetto of “Sweet Home Chicago” or the melancholic strains of “I Believe I’ll Dust My Broom,” Robert Johnson’s legacy resonates far beyond the Mississippi Delta. #robertjohnson#musichistory#happybirthday
If you're headed to RiverBeat Fest this weekend, why not swing by the Memphis Rock 'n' Soul Museum first to learn all about the "History of Memphis Music". We are open from 10:00 am-5:00 pm, so you'll have plenty of time to tour the museum before the gates open.
Mempho Presents plays a significant role in supporting the museum and the Memphis Music Hall of Fame. Their dedication to live music aligns perfectly with the spirit of Memphis, where music has always been a powerful force that transcends barriers.

Many thanks to the amazing Priscilla Presley for all her help with the announcement of the Center of Memphis Music. Aside from her many years promoting Memphis and Memphis music, Ms. Presley has been a staunch supporter of this project for Rock ‘n’ Soul, the Memphis Music Hall of Fame and Beale Street. Earlier that week prior to the press conference, Ms. Presley even offered her support and met with Tennessee State Legislators on Capitol Hill in Nashville promoting this initiative, and sharing its importance to education, musicians, the music industry, tourism, economic impact, Beale Street and the Memphis Entertainment District. #priscilla#MemphisMusic#bealestreet
