Memphis blues is a style of blues music that originated in Memphis, Tennessee in the 1920s and 1930s. It is characterized by its use of electric guitars, harmonicas, and a steady rhythm. The lyrics often focus on themes of love, heartbreak, and social injustice.
Pre-war Memphis was home to country blues greats like Furry Lewis, Sleepy John Estes, Robert Wilkins—famously covered by the Rolling Stones—and Memphis Minnie. Postwar Memphis gave rise to some of the biggest names in electric blues and was ground zero for the development of rock ‘n' roll.
