Summary


A coveted performer at several prestigious blues festivals, [Corey Harris] has traveled to Brazil and West Africa with the U.S. State Department's Jazz Ambassadors program.

Since Harris shook up the blues scene with his 1995 debut release, "Between Midnight and Day," a masterpiece of rural blues exploration, he's been finding ways to extend the journey, composing new songs, reinventing old ones, following his instincts wherever they might lead. As a singer, songwriter and cultural emissary he has merged blues, African pop, rock and electronica in original ways.

Film director Martin Scorcese tapped Corey to star in and narrate the documentary film "Feel Like Going Home." Filmed in Mississippi and Mali, West Africa, it tells the story of the blues from its African origins.
