Brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson formed North Mississippi Allstars in 1996 as a loose collective of
musicians from their North Mississippi home inspired by their father Jim Dickinson as well as neighbors
and musical elders of their community; RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Otha Turner and Fred McDowell.
Luther’s first national tour was the RL Burnside Ass Pocket of Whiskey tour in 1997, selling out shows in
the US and Canada. “Kenny Brown hired me to tour with RL and Cedric and showed me the ropes. That
experience blew my mind. Cody and I have been on the road ever since.” NMA began touring in 1998 and
over the years the touring lineup has included, Cedric, Duwayne and Garry Burnside, Chris Chew, Berry
Oakley Jr, Oteil Burbridge and currently Joey Williams (Blind Boys of Alabama), Ray Ray Holloman
(guitar player for Eminem and NE-YO), and Marcus Machado.
Since their debut album in 2000, NMA have shared the stage on the never ending road with countless
legends; Phil Lesh, Mavis Staples, Robert Plant, John Hiatt, the Allman Brothers, The Black Crowes,
Buddy Guy, Snoop Dogg, and Jon Spencer to name a few. In those 30 years, NMA earned multiple
grammy nominations for their experimental albums which they like to call Modern Mississippi Music.
