Things About Comin’ My Way – A Tribute to The Mississippi Sheiks

  • October 12, 2009

The Mississippi Sheiks recorded country and Delta blues throughout the 30’s and were one of the top selling groups of its time. Juno award winning musician Steve Dawson and longtime fan of the Sheiks gathered together an amazing set of musicians to record their renditions of Sheiks’ songs; contributors include The North Mississippi All-Stars, Jim Byrnes, The Sojourners, Ndidi Onukwulu, Bill Frisell, Madeleine Peyroux, The Carolina Chocolate Drops, Bruce Cockburn, and Kelly Joe Phelps. Things About Comin’ My Way – A Tribute to The Mississippi Sheiks is a stellar homage steeped in the blues yet drawing upon musicians from many different veins of Americana and other genres.
