Presented by writer, singer and guitarist Roberto Picazo, Southern Nights brings to life the story of Southern Soul, with history and tales combined with live music performances.
Take a journey across the southern states of the U.S. and revel in the sweet sounds of Southern Soul. Kick off in Memphis and experience the rise of a new breed of R&B at Stax Records, head on to Muscle Shoals to learn how so many hit records emerged from this little town, and wind down in New Orleans with good times, good tunes and great mythology.
Featuring the songs of Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, Allen Toussaint and many more!
