We traveled to Meridian early Monday morning to do a photo shoot with 95-year-old
David "Honeyboy" Edwards. He had performed the night before at the MSU Riley Center for the
Robert Johnson Memorial Tour.
We met Honeyboy and his longtime manager, Michael Frank, at the historic
Weidmann's restaurant in downtown Meridian for our second
Blues @ Home photo shoot. We are so proud to have this charming Shaw native participating in the project. He is a true Mississippi blues legend!
Visit the
Blues @ Home web site to find out how to sponsor one of H.C. Porter's mixed media paintings that will capture 40 of Mississippi's living blues legends. And, stay tuned as we document our journey through Mississippi to meet these amazing blues men and women!
