Together Ricky and Micol Davis accomplish soul-searing harmonies with Ricky’s stabbing figures on acoustic guitar and dobro and Micol’s Janis Joplin fiery vocals. Blue Mother Tupelo’s critically acclaimed and popular album, Heaven and Earth, debuted at #2 on the EuroAmericana Chart and remained in the Top 40 of Roots Music Report’s “Roots Rock” Chart for a year. Blue Mother Tupelo are touring across the United States bringing stomp and sway to music lovers looking for something real, soul-filled, earthy and uplifting.
