Born in central MS and lived there till I was 18. Now I'm in New Orleans which is very close but I don't make it over there very often.

Well, I live 75 miles strait up from Hattiesburg and the home of Southern University. The middle of the Southern part. I also don't go to New Orleans, live only 230 miles from it . But, you know how it is.

So you like the country music also? Some people say this singer from Meridian is the first country recording artist.

The Cooters "Life Like" (from Oxford, MS north and our Law School is Ole Miss University)
KInda punk rock.

My parents are from Mize! Talk about country, It's very pretty there but I spend my time away from New Orleans hanging out in AZ and CO.

I have a tiny bit of property in AZ.

Oh yeah, Mize is 25 miles south of me. We are literally from the same area. Cool. Just past Magee. Go there all the time. But, you're lucky to be outta here AZ and CO are by far more, well more to do. You know what I mean here.

One day I may retire to Co-Hay swamp. My family has land there that I will inherit.
Nice and quite. My great grandfather set up the Co-Hay logging camp there ovre a hundred years ago. And just to stay on topic I will add he had the only piano around for miles.

I've never heard of this place. I mostly move between Madison, MS and Magee, MS. Never heard of Co-Hay logging camp. It is quiet out here.

Between Magee and Mize and Raleigh, The logging camp has been gone since my grand mother was 12. She was born at that camp and never lived anywhere else. She told me that every Saturday night, the workers all gathered at her house for a "sangin'" as she called it.

My Grandma used to call it Harmonizing . Here's what was done at my Grandmas' house most weekends when my uncle was there, he also played guitar with Elvis before Elvis was famous in Clarksdale, MS while Elvis was shopping demos to radio stations.

Glad you posted it.

Excellent, Now I'm really ashamed of my last post. I can't believe I've never heard of him.

Here's a buddy of mine from Hattiesburg
This is not the best sound quality but he gets it done. I went to high school with a lot of these guys in the video.

I've never heard of this person before, he's great.

I've really gotta get out more.

Hattiesburg has a surprisingly current music scene. Here is my buddy Kevin playing guitar with his surf punk band. They are from New Orleans but they play Hattiesburg often. I think surf punk is my flavor of the month right now.

Never heard of them or Surf Punk music.

Thanks for the introduction. Cool. I like learning about new music.
