Red is definitely the real deal, as a NZ blues musician it was like going to Mecca, I even got to play there, twice! Real good , genuine people.

If you need information about Clarksdale, look no further. Roger is extremely helpful and knowledgeable about ALL things going on. Stop in, look around, and get the information that may be lacking elsewhere in “laid-back” Clarksdale. If you’re planning a visit, check out the website. If you find yourself in Clarksdale, make this your first stop. Roger and Frank are very friendly!

The Rock & Blues Museum

COMING SOON: VIRTUAL BLUES2ROCK MUSEUM TOUR. Update: Because of the Corona Project at this time all showings are cancelled; we are in process of making a virtual tour of the memorabilia collection in the building which is for sale with or without the building. The non-profit, which run the museum has been dissolved as of end August last year. The private owners of the building and the collection have retired and the complete collection in it and the building ( including a large apartment with 2 separate sleeping spaces upstairs) is for sale . Perhaps to somebody or a community who would continue it (with or without the building). We hope that the Museum continues in one form in future depending on new ownership!

We met Razerblade Steward at the Clup Ground Zero. He talked about his personal live and the Blues History in Clarksdale. A very famous spot, where lots of famous artists performed. Projects in education in music for all ages! Its a must to be there.

Hopson Plantation

Reviewed By UPwrite - Kingsford, United States

We love Clarksdale! We try out different places, and Hopson was on our list. We weren't disappointed! It is a huge building, exploding with old south decor you'll love to check out. We had a delicious lunch of hotdogs, cucumber salad and chips, free of charge. A couple of drinks from the bar, and a visit with a new friend, made us happy touristas! We were lucky enough to catch some great live music with Seth Stroud. I'll tell ya, if you enjoy blues music, Clarksdale is your destination! Very unique venue, here at Hopson!
