Cody Dickinson of North Mississippi Allstars is heading to the White Water Tavern with special guest Greg Spradlin joining him on Saturday, August 30th. Advance tickets for this awesome show are recommended and available at www.whitewatertavern.com
Cody Dickinson is a multifaceted artist whose journey through American roots music is deeply grounded in family heritage and a collaborative spirit. As a member of North Mississippi Allstars, which he co-founded with his brother Luther Dickinson in 1996, Cody has established himself as a Grammy-nominated musician, songwriter, producer, and filmmaker. His musical lineage traces back to his father, Jim Dickinson, a Memphis musical icon who worked with legendary artists like the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan, providing Cody with an extraordinary musical foundation from an early age.
Hi-Watter, the debut LP from Rev. Greg Spradlin and the Band of Imperials, has been waiting for us all this time, like a 100-year flood, ready to swell over the banks and drown us in its torrents of noise-damaged funk and gospel-possessed blues rumble. Swampy yet sophisticated. Greasy yet refined. Baptized in Hammond organ and rippling rock & roll guitar. It’s a record that plays like a debauched Saturday-night second line before washing your tattered soul clean Sunday morning. Inspired in part by Hurricane Katrina and other acts of God—as well as the Reverend’s dear departed friend, legendary producer Jim Dickinson (The Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, Big Star, The Replacements)—Hi-Watter features Los Lobos’ singer/guitarist David Hidalgo, Elvis Costello drummer Pete Thomas, bassist Davey Faragher (Cracker, John Hiatt), and late genius of the keys, Rudy Copeland (Solomon Burke, Johnny “Guitar” Watson).
