If you are looking for the real Chicago blues, then you need look no further.  Everyone knows Muddy Waters, Godfather of the blues was father of the Chicago electric blues sound.  And there is no-one in the world more capable of recreating that sound and image than his oldest son, Mud Morganfield.   This son and proud heir of the King of Chicago blues is blessed with a big and powerful voice that can manage to convey deep emotional resonance on the slow numbers and good old-fashioned testosterone laden strut on those classic shuffles.  He is also blessed with a natural sense of showmanship that ensures that audiences fall right into the palm of his hand.  He mixes up the sets with his Dad’s classic songs and his own original material.  He has shared the stage and gained the respect of many of his Dad’s ex sidemen and Chicago blues superstars, Buddy Guy, Kenny Big Eyes Smith, Eddie “The Chief” Clearwater, Pinetop Perkins, Jimmie Johnson, Mojo Buford, to name but a few.

In November 2012, Mud played on BBC2’s Later with Jools Holland Show, and Jools compered Mud’s performance at the London Blues Festival and joined Mud and the band on stage for a fantastic rendition of his father’s song: “Got My Mojo Working”.  Mud has currently been nominated in three categories at the Blues Music Awards: Best Album, Best Traditional Blues Album, Best Traditional Blues Male Artist.
