About

North Mississippi Allstars

NMA started by brother Luther and Cody Dickinson in 1996 as a loose collective of musicians from their North Mississippi home, inspired by their father Jim Dickinson as well as neighbors and musical elders of their community: RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Otha Turner and Fred McDowell.

Luther’s first national tour was the RL Burnside Ass Pocket of Whiskey tour in 1997, selling out shows in the US and Canada. “Kenny Brown hired me to tour with RL and Cedric and showed me the ropes. That experience blew my mind. Cody and I have been on the road ever since.”

NMA began touring in 1998. Over the years the touring lineup has included:
- Cedric Burnside
- Duwayne Burnside
- Garry Burnside
- Chris Chew
- Berry Oakley Jr
- Oteil Burbruidgem
- currently Joey Williams of the Blind Boys of Alabama
- Ray Ray Hollowman, guitar player for Eminem and Nee-O

Since their debut album in 2000 and hitting the never-ending road, they have shared the stage with Phil Lesh, Mavis Staples, Robert Plant, John Hiatt, the Allman Brothers, The Black Crowes, Buddy Guy, Snoop Dogg, and Jon Spencer, while earning multiple Grammy nominations for their experimental albums — they like to call it "Modern Mississippi Music."

All Ages, under 18 accompanied.
