AWARD-WINNING BLUES FILM WITH ST. LOUIS ROOTS SCHEDULED FOR LONG AWAITED LOCAL PREMIERE
M For Mississippi to Screen at Off Broadway on July 30
(ST. LOUIS) – Since its release nearly two years ago, the film M For Mississippi has earned numerous awards and accolades and has screened in cities across the globe. Yet despite deep local roots, the film has never screened publicly in St. Louis. That will all change on Friday, July 30 when the film receives its St. Louis premiere at the music club Off Broadway on Lemp Avenue in the city’s historic Cherokee Lemp District.
Filmed in the spring of 2008 and released that fall, M For Mississippi has been described as “part blues documentary, part buddy flick.” It follows two blues music producers – Jeff Konkel and Roger Stolle – on a weeklong road trip across Mississippi as they visit some of that state’s most interesting and outrageous blues musicians.
Konkel and Stolle – who were also among the film’s co-producers and co-directors – have strong ties to St. Louis. Konkel, who owns the locally based music label Broke & Hungry Records, has lived in St. Louis for most of his life.
The Off Broadway screening begins at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 30 and will be followed by a live performance by Terry “Harmonica” Bean, one of the Mississippi-based artists profiled in the film. Both Konkel and Stolle will be on hand to introduce the film, along with their co-producer Kari Jones, owner of Mudpuppy Recordings.
