Saturday Nights mean Music in the Folklore Store.

Though it's hard to believe, Daddy Mack didn't seriously start playing guitar until he was well into his 40s.  When venerable Memphis blues band, The Fieldstones needed someone to fill in for a night, Mack was in the right place at the right time.  Mack so impressed them, they kept him on for years until he eventually formed his own Daddy Mack Blues Band in the 1990s.

Through three albums and extensive tours of the U.S. and Europe, Mack and his crew have spread the word that the blues is still alive and well in Memphis.  Mack was recently honored by the Mississippi Blues Commission with a marker on the Blues Trail in his hometown of Como.  He joins a long line of distinguished Mississippi blues performers such as Son House, Robert Johnson, Charlie Patton, Muddy Waters, Skip James, Bukka White, John Lee Hooker, Fred McDowell and B. B. King.  Catch this living blues legend up close and personal at the intimate Folklore Store in the heart of downtown Memphis.
