Their motto is “Traditional Blues With A Unique Sound” as they present fresh yet vintage-based musical ideas.\n\n\n\nMISSISSIPPI HEAT’s name is a reflection of Pierre’s reverence for Mississippi’s blues culture and music. The band’s conviction is that there is no deeper music than Delta-inspired blues to express what lies in everyone’s soul. They have received world-wide critical acclaim, including from Living Blues Magazine: “MISSISSIPPI HEAT delivers its traditional urban blues with a freshness, energy and competence that makes them a treasure on today’s Chicago scene.”\n\n\n\nMississippi 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. Besides a scheduled European tour for 2018, they will also soon perform in Dubai.\n\n\n\nBuddy 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.”\n\n\n\nThe band has made waves on the blues charts by regularly reaching the #1 spot on Living Blues Magazine’s radio charts.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurrent Lineup\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPierre Lacocque ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/pierre-lacocque/ )\n\n\n\nBandleader\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSheryl Youngblood ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/sheryl-youngblood/ )\n\n\n\nLead Vocals\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTerrence Williams ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/terrence-williams/ )\n\n\n\nDrums\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYoshimi Hirata ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/yoshimi-hirata/ )\n\n\n\nBass\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGiles Corey ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/giles-corey/ )\n\n\n\nGuitar + Vocals\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInetta Visor ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/inetta-visor/ )\n\n\n\nGuest Star, Lead Vocals\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaneshia Hamilton ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/daneshia-hamilton/ )\n\n\n\nGuest Star, Lead Vocals\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZach Avery ( https://mississippiheat.net/band-member/zach-avery/ )\n\n\n\nGuest Star, Guitar + Vocals\n\n\n\nDiscography\n\n\n\n\nStraight From The Heart ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/straight-from-the-heart/ ) (Van der Linden Records, 1992)\n\n\n\nLearned The Hard Way ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/learned-the-hard-way/ ) (Van der Linden Records, 1994)\n\n\n\nThunder In My Heart ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/thunder-in-my-heart/ ) (Van der Linden Records, 1995)\n\n\n\nHandyman ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/handyman/ ) (Van der Linden Records, 1998)\n\n\n\nFootprints On The Ceiling ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/footprints-on-the-ceiling/ ) (Crosscut Records, 2002)\n\n\n\nGlad You’re Mine ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/glad-youre-mine/ ) (Crosscut Records, 2005)\n\n\n\nOne Eye Open: Live At Rosa’s Lounge, Chicago ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/one-eye-open-live-at-rosas-lounge-chicago/ ) (Delmark Records, 2005)\n\n\n\nHattiesburg Blues ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/hattiesburg-blues/ ) (Delmark Records, 2008)\n\n\n\nLet’s Live It Up ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/lets-live-it-up/ ) (Delmark Records, 2010)\n\n\n\nDelta Bound ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/delta-bound/ ) (Delmark Records, 2012)\n\n\n\nWarning Shot ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/warning-shot/ ) (Delmark Records, 2014)\n\n\n\nCab Driving Man ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/cab-driving-man/ ) (Delmark Records, 2016)\n\n\n\nMadeleine ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/madeleine/ ) (Van der Linden Recordings, 2022)\n\n\n\nDon’t Look Back ( https://mississippiheat.net/albums/dont-look-back/ ) (Delmark Recordings, 2025)\n\n
