FROM THE HEART OF THE DELTA.
For Morgan Freeman, the Mississippi Delta isn’t just the birthplace of the Blues – it’s home. A lifelong advocate for preserving the music and culture of this region, Freeman’s deep connection to the Delta runs through every note of this symphonic journey. As a co-founder of the world-renowned Ground Zero Blues Club, Freeman has dedicated himself to celebrating the musicians who shaped this powerful genre. His passion for the Blues goes beyond admiration – it’s a commitment to preserving the history, soul, and stories of the artists who first gave the world this uniquely American sound.
Morgan Freeman’s lifelong love for his birthplace in Mississippi—its rhythms, its history, and its people—lies at the very heart of the Symphonic Blues Experience. His vision to elevate the Blues beyond the juke joint and into the concert hall was born from a desire to honor the soul of the Delta on a grand, global stage. Together with his business partners Eric Meier and Howard Stovall, with whom he co-owns the legendary Ground Zero Blues Club in Clarksdale, Mississippi, Freeman found the ideal collaborators to help bring this vision to life. With Meier’s entrepreneurial leadership and Stovall’s production expertise, the three transformed a deeply personal homage into a groundbreaking cultural event that celebrates the rich legacy of the Blues through powerful music, cinematic storytelling, and symphonic scale.
