ARTISTICALLY, IT CAN'T BE EASY TO GO FROM STAGE TO STAGE SINGING THE BLUES WHILE BEING THE ELDEST SON OF MUDDY WATERS. WHAT’S MORE, HIS TONE AND VOCAL TIMBRE BRING HIM EVEN CLOSER TO THE LEGEND. BUT MUD HAS HIS OWN STYLE, THE BLUES RUNNING THROUGH HIS VEINS CONVEYS TRUE FEELING. IN 1954, LARRY "MUD" MORGANFIELD WAS BORN IN CHICAGO. AS A CHILD AND TEENAGER, HE DIDN’T SEE MUCH OF HIS FATHER, ALTHOUGH HE WAS CERTAINLY SURROUNDED BY STREET MUSIC AND LIVED IN AN ALTERNATIVE WORLD THAT DIDN’T ALWAYS BRING GOOD THINGS. HE DECIDED TO DEDICATE HIMSELF TO MUSIC AFTER MUDDY'S DEATH AND BEGAN SINGING IN SOUTH SIDE CLUBS, THOUGH HE DIDN’T RELEASE HIS FIRST ALBUM UNTIL 2008. MUD HAS EARNED THE RESPECT OF BLUES WORLD SINCE THOSE EARLY DAYS, AND HIS ALBUM "SON OF THE SEVENTH SON" OFFICIALLY DECLARED THAT HIS CHARISMA AND ELEGANCE WERE WELCOME IN THE BLUES MUSIC SCENE. SEVERN RECORDS RELEASED THOSE EARLY ALBUMS, AND IN 2022, DELMARK RECORDS PRODUCED WHAT WAS THEN HIS BEST WORK. BUT IN THIS LATEST ALBUM, RELEASED THROUGH NOLA BLUE, "DEEP MUD", HE COMBINES THE BEST OF WHAT HE’S LEARNED OVER THE YEARS INTO A DEFINING MUSICAL STATEMENT IN HIS CAREER. MUD MORGANFIELD IS STRICTLY AUTHENTIC.
