Standin in the middle of the crossroads where Memphis meets Dallas and drinks with New Orleans just to fall in love with Helena, but lives in Little Rock to be in the middle of it all......
South 61 is the result of the wrong things happening to the right people at just the right time. After a few years of great intentions and a little "Stole From Blues", South 61 came together with the idea of bringing the Delta sound back to Central Arkansas. Yet with influences ranging from Stevie Ray Vaughn to R.L. Burnside to Pink Floyd, South 61 has begun changing into what you hear today. But we haven't forgot where we came from, and we'll never forget the steps we took that got us here.
Come out and walk with us. We'll meet you at the Crossroads.

Hey, just a reminder about the show tonight. We'll be playing with our good friends Starroy at The Brickhouse tonight in Jonesboro, AR. There's definitely going to be some jamming going on. I love when we get together with these guys. Can't wait. Hope to see you there.
Also, we'll be playing at the Fool's Ball Music Festival in Holly Springs Mississippi on Saturday night. Tons of bands, good people, and camping for the weekend. Should be a blast. We're playing a special midnight set for all the party people.
Get the word out my friend. I really want to see all the South 61 boys out there on Wed the 25th at Stickys around 9. Come early so we have a chance. Looking forward to hooking it up soon.
