Queen of Southern Soul featuring Nellie Tiger Travis Special guest Soul R&B Singer Yolanda Drake Destiny chose Nellie “Tiger” Travis to sing the blues. The pathway from the Mississippi Delta through Memphis to Chicago and onto the rest of the world was paved by some of the most influential artists in music history. Trailblazers like Muddy Waters, Dorothy Moore, BB King and Howling Wolf took the Magnolia State’s signature blues sound from the dusty flatlands of the cotton fields and laid the foundation for all American music to build upon. Be it R&B, soul, pop, rock n roll, EDM or hip-hop, the cornerstone of modern music was birthed in these humble and destitute beginnings but went on to shape the sound of music across the globe. Continuing in this ongoing tradition of influence and innovation is soul-stirring songbird Nellie “Tiger” Travis. Following in the footsteps of so many legends who came before her, this fierce and fiery songstress took a more scenic route from her Mound Bayou, Miss. breeding ground to sunny California to Chicago and all the way around the world. With an unfiltered, down home sound that encompasses classic R&B, contemporary blues and Southern soul, Nellie’s wide-ranging music crosses age, gender and racial boundaries. And she has been crossing those boundaries at home and abroad for more than 25 years. Whether a smoke-filled hole-in-the-wall club in the backwoods of Mississippi, an overseas performance in the most exotic corners of Europe or playing a set on national television alongside the Roots crew on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Nellie Tiger Travis knows exactly what the people want and how to give it to them.
