"Super songs played by super musicians. It's soulful/bluesy with Southern Rock, classic country, gospel and even a bit of adult album alternative (AAA) influences. This album will win them awards." --Planet Weekly
"The chemistry that exists in their personal life carries over to the music and these 14 tracks are a testament to that fact. Blue Mother Tupelo is at the top of their game." --Pittsburgh Daily News
"One of the most intriguing genres of music out there is that of Americana ... I can honestly say it's been a while since I have been as entertained with an album." --Music News Nashville



CLICK HERE to buy DELTA LOW ~ MOUNTAIN HIGH"! From the Tallahassee Democrat's LIMELIGHT:
'... the songs blend N'Awlins-style blues with spare Appalachian acoustic grit, Southern rock grooves, '60s flower-power dreaminess and rootsy rock. Ricky plays a mean dobro, peeling off riffs as slick and juicy as a ripe peach, and Micol's voice is both steely and delicate, like a cross between Bonnie Raitt & Emmylou Harris ...'



Click the COVER of "LOVE LIVE - 5 SONGS FROM THE ROAD" to buy it now! It's a special release from the summer of 2007. Each copy is shonuff lovingly handmade by Micol
with a collection of around 43 minutes of LIVE music recorded from 2002 to 2006 at some of Ricky & Micol's favorite shows. This recording is a must for fans of BMT live!!

   About Blue Mother Tupelo

BLUE MOTHER TUPELO'S sound is signature ...
a southern blend with universal appeal.
It's all about soul -
mountain, delta, swamp, river, sunshine and rain.

Some Reviews:
BLUE MOTHER TUPELO IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE BEST HUSBAND AND WIFE DUO YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF.
Paste Magazine
Micol and Ricky Davis, and whomever happens to be their drummer at any given time, play swampy, gospel-tinged southern soul-blues. Micol displayed the full-bodied vocal fire of Janis Joplin, while she rattled and slapped her tambourine with the ecstasy and know-how of a black gospel choir member. Ricky played muscular, stabbing figures on acoustic guitar and dobro, and the two joined in close, soul-searing harmonies like only intimate kin can. When the couple sang an A capella rendition of the old gospel number "Wish I Was in Heaven Sitting Down," the result was a heady blend of otherworldly longing and thisworldly passion, bodies swaying and tambourines shaken emphatically.
from The Tennessean
Craig Havinghurst ...
Micol and Ricky Davis bring to Mississippi blues the same historic respect and modern sensibility that Gillian Welch and David Rawlings bring to old Appalachian music.
from The Metro Pulse
Leah Willis ...
What shakes more than cherries in a moonshine jar, and isn't much bigger?
That would be the petite Ms. Micol (pronounced "Michael") Davis.
You've not seen rhythm until you've seen the percussive jingle of Micol's tambourine snake through her body, head to toe, as her husband Ricky licks out expressive slide guitar.
Micol's raspy voice pleads: Put your head on my shoulder baby/ Show me that you love me/ Make everything alright.
She's all delta soul and siren femininity.
And Ricky responds: Hold me in your arms baby/ Squeeze me real tight/ Show me that you love me/ Make everything alright.
He's backroom blues and Appalachian mountain staying power.
... Blue Mother Tupelo creates just the right balance of impassioned vocals and controlled rhythms. It's the confluence of a turbulent, cool mountain stream and a warm, sunny river—
that eddy where the water's just right. Dive in.
