WATCH: North Mississippi Allstars Premiere “Up and Rolling”

North Mississippi Allstars are set to return with Up and Rolling on October 4th via New West Records. The 12-song set was produced by Luther and Cody Dickinson and recorded at The Zebra Ranch, their family studio established by their father, the legendary Jim Dickinson in Independence, MS. The album also features guest appearances from Mavis Staples, Jason Isbell, Cedric Burnside, Duane Betts, and Sharde Thomas. Up and Rolling finds North Mississippi Allstars getting back to their roots and recapturing the communal spirit upon which the band was founded.

Today, the band premiered the video on Relix for the album’s title track, “Up and Rolling.” “The video for ‘Up and Rolling’ was shot on location at our family’s recording studio compound and Otha Turner’s driveway.  Director J.B. Lawrence got a mean case of poison ivy. I escaped with a mere 30 or so chigger bites.” He continued, “You can see the Mississippi heat in the haze of our film. The camera shut down from overheating at one point. ‘Up and Rolling’ is about good times and despite the heat, we genuinely enjoyed ourselves, goofing around, dancing to the tune blasting out of our Ford van. The nighttime dancing in head light shoot ran J.B.’s car battery down but our van’s faithful jumper cables saved the day and we went our separate ways, hot, exhausted, and only beginning to itch.”
