Mississippi Heat is known internationally for their passionate blues delivery. Overseas and national touring have been an integral part of their work for decades. The band has appeared at many world-famous festivals including many in the US (like the Pocono's and the Chicago Blues Festivals), Scandinavia, Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Canada, Tunisia, Finland, Venezuela and in Mexico, among many others. They had a European tour in 2018.
Buddy Guy has gone on record saying that it's "been a long time since I heard a good blues band like this." And recently the band received this critical acclaim from Bonnie Tallman at the Billtown Blues Festival (Hughesville, PA): "Can't find enough words to express how blown away everyone was with the Mississippi Heat performance! It was spectacular in every way."
