**“Goin’ South,” the new single by The Memphis Royal Brothers, features the iconic
Charlie Musselwhite on vocals and harmonica.**

“It all came together to create a beautiful and unforgettable mood. I felt so comfortable
in this swampy groove,” Musselwhite declared.

The track, written by Gary Bolen and Wes Hamil, takes the listener on a bluesy road
trip steeped in Memphis soul courtesy of triple Grammy winner Boo Mitchell’s production
and puts the listener deep in the cotton fields, history, and heat of the birthplace
of American Music. In contrast, the lyrics go, “The South’s a state of mind.”

The appropriately dubbed Memphis Royal Brothers boast a line-up of living legends;
six are Grammy Award winners, several are nominees, and one is an Oscar winner. 
Boo stated, “The Memphis Royal Brothers are a collective; you’ve got musicians from
Royal and Stax; I mix it up with some young guys too. It’s making music, passing
torches, and just good for the whole music community.”

This incredible combination resulted in an album for the ages, featuring songs that
share a timeless tradition, performed by masterful musicians, and produced in a 
place that reflects one of the essential bloodlines of roots, blues, and rock and
roll: Clarksdale, Mississippi.
