Mississippi Bluesman Davey Jones Releases New Album, “Ball Cap Blues,” on January 23, 2026; Features Jones’ Southern/Contemporary Influences While Staying True To His Mississippi Roots |
On January 23, 2026, South Mississippi native Davey Jones will release Ball Cap Blues. The nine-song disc features Jones’ unique style of Blues music incorporating Southern and Contemporary influences while still staying true to the Mississippi Blues roots that he is known for. Jones is known for playing all the instrumentation on his songs; Ball Cap Blues is no different. From driving piano and guitar rhythms on songs like “Six Feet In The Ground” to liad-back grooves like “Walking Easy,” to upbeat funk influences heard on “New Groove” to modern blues beats like “Woman I Love,” Jones finds a way to weave multiple genres into a distinctive sound that’s true to his Southern vibe. “I enjoy playing everything myself if possible,” says Davey. “It means that everything on the song in uniquely me and my style.” Davey Jones cut his teeth playing music around the Gulf Coast, blending a unique style of Delta Blues, Southern Rock, and Country into his playing. True to his roots, Jones opens Ball Cap Blues with “Banks of the Blues,” his tribute to what life is like growing up in South Mississippi alongside the greats that came before. “When you grow up in this area, you’re shaped by the music that surrounds you,” explains Jones. “I was born where the first rock n’ roll lick was recorded (Hattiesburg, MS in 1936 by the Mississippi Jook Band). I try my best to stay true to myself, but to also honor those great legends that paved the way for artists like myself. Ball Cap Blues is just that. My version of the Blues.” Davey Jones “Ball Cap Blues” Promo Video – Click Link To View SONG LISTING Banks of the Blues New Groove Walking Easy Ain’t No Good For Me Mid Memphis Blues What You Gonna Do Six Feet In The Ground Going Down In Mississippi Woman I Love All Songs Produced, Recorded & Engineered by Davey Jones |
