"Mississippi" Ol MacDonald plays and sings the real delta blues. Only 29, and a guitarist and singer guitar for 20 of those years, Mississippi has played with Radio 2 Folk Musician of the Year and Mercury Music Prize Nominee Seth Lakeman and Steve Ellis and Love Affair ("Everlasting Love"). Mississippi has played session guitar for Nick Keir (The McCalmans), on "All Over This Town" which got airplay on BBC Radio Scotland, and in 2006, Mississippi's cover of Albert King's "As the Years go Passing By" was broadcast to Azerbaijan on the BBC World Service. He has met BB King, John Lee Hooker Jr and Sam Moore and been to Memphis, Clarksdale and Chicago. Mississippi is the owner of the world's smallest blues museum - he owns one of Robert Cray's guitar picks and a splinter of wood from the shack in which Muddy Waters was born.
