DELMARK RECORDS CELEBRATES JUNETEENTH BY RELEASING MORE GREAT CATALOG TO GLOBAL RADIO

Posted on June 10, 2021

“Delmark Records and AirPlay Direct celebrate Juneteenth with a selection of blues & jazz recordings by African-American artists from different eras and styles. From the muscular style of New Orleans jazz pioneer Bunk Johnson to the contemporary sounds of Nicole Mitchell, Delmark’s represents musical diversity. Swing-era giants Ben Webster and Teddy Wilson are featured on one of our mythical Sackville Series recordings.

Delmark’s catalogue features powerful living blues artists such as Jimmy Burns, Jimmy Johnson and Toronzo Cannon. Among
the historical artists this month’s selection includes Arthur “Big Boy” Crudup, who was a huge influence on Elvis Presley and others, the monumental Big Joe Williams, admired and treasured by Bob Dylan and Mike Bloomfield, and the electrifying Karen Carroll, whose career is well overdue for greater recognition.

Delmark Records is the custodian of an enormous legacy of African-American music that we are committed to preserve and make available for America and the world.”  ~ Julia A. Miller, Delmark President
