Saison de "Jazz à Pau" : 56è Chicago Blues Festival Back to Mississippi

The Chicago Blues Festival’s annual tour is already in its 56th year and returns in the fall of 2026 with an edition focused on the festival’s roots. After several stops dedicated to Chicago electric blues, the tour heads to the Mississippi Delta and its capital, Jackson—the birthplace of a new generation of artists.

Led by Zac Harmon, a mentor and renowned figure in contemporary blues, this tour celebrates the passing down of the tradition. At his side, young talents such as Kingston Livingston—discovered by Harmon—and Lady Adrena, a singer who has transitioned from gospel to blues, embody the revival of the Mississippi music scene.

True to its spirit, the festival continues its mission: to foster dialogue between generations and offer European audiences an authentic immersion in this timeless music. (...)
