Blues Disciples Media

At Blues Disciples, our mission is to entertain our listeners by sharing blues music and its impact on America for over 100
years.  Blues music was born out of adversity and in the early twentieth century, one of the few ways black Americans in
the south could escape their miserable existence was to develop and leverage a musical talent. Playing music offered an
opportunity for meaningful change in their lives. Most of the early blues artists were self-taught and after hundreds of
hours of practice, these artists could develop their own unique style and sound. They used their own life experiences and
the stories they grew up with to write the brilliant and authentic music that we all love. Blues Disciples’ goal is to spread
this incredible music to as many people as possible through our library of hundreds of podcasts focused on blues and gospel
music and the artists that created it: www.bluesdisciples.org.
