About this episode
Cedric Burnside is the grandson of the famous bluesman R.L. Burnside, and he’s also a Grammy-winning artist who’s taking the genre into new territory. He started playing the drums when he was still in grade school, and by the age of 13 he was playing juke joints and traveling the country with his grandfather, whom he referred to as “Big Daddy.” Cedric talks with Sid about his life growing up on a farm, how he approaches music as a songwriter, and why he’ll never leave Mississippi. Plus, he talks about his new album, Hill Country Love (out 4/5/24), which is infused with his own unique spin on the sound that his grandfather helped define.
