vocalsAbout
Bobby Rush, a Louisiana native who lived for decades in Chicago, earned the title king of the chitlin circuit after relocating to Jackson in the early 1980s. Rush's distinctive folk funk style, featured on his recordings for the Jackson-based LaJam label and others, bridged the blues he heard as a youth and modern soul music. His upbeat and often provocative live shows established him as a favorite among southern soul and blues audiences and later brought him international acclaim.
