Mississippi Stomp, named after our native state and the stomp box, is influenced by the music that has been created in many small places that we call home. Places such as the Piney Woods, to the Flatlands, from the Hill Country, to the Muddy Waters, to the Appalachian Foothills, the Black Prairie and the Coast. These small places of hard work in the smoldering heat of summer and fall harvest would spawn music from many all time greats. Many of these greats in conjunction with a mishmash of our own musical family heritages would influence our writing, our music, and our sound, from the old, to the new, metamorphosing the band, Mississippi Stomp. Kick back, relax and lend us your ears!

If you're reading this right now, you've probably been indoctrinated into the mysteries of the mythical Mississippi night. You've felt the sweet taste from a fruit jar….you've seen the moonlight through the trees bathing the surreal shapes of the kudzu cloaked hills.

This is the first recording by the group Mississippi Stomp. It's a long time coming. The songs at the heart of "Chickasaw Lodge" bear witness to the combined experience and talent of it's members, all native Mississippians. The soul of the songs expressed by the voices of the Stuckey's, Gid and Sunny; one a descendant from the piney woods of the Free State of Jones, the other from the church and juke joint infested hills of Northeast Mississippi. The band, all blood brothers (and sister!) for decades come together to create this fine document.

Headlights on dead-end roads, bad, bad spirits and the sweet salvation all burn in the luminous heart of the Chickasaw Lodge. I love this record and hope you do too. ~Jimbo Mathus
