Memphis Jones in Europe


Memphis Jones will perform 2 concerts as well as emcee at the upcoming Memphis Heart & Soul in the Netherlands. The city of Enschede, which has a strong historical connection with Memphis, Tennessee, will hold the 3rd annual festival, honoring the late BB King, on May 14-16 this year.  




Earlier this spring, Willy Berends and Raymond Nijenhuis, ambassadors from Enschede, visited Beale Street and asked Memphis to present BB King's Blues Club with a portrait of its namesake by Dutch artist Sonna Krom.

As the ad hoc ambassador of Memphis, Tennesse, Memphis Jones is a fantastic addition to sister-city Enschede's music festival which honors the roots and culture of both towns so well!



Book Memphis Jones directly to emcee or perform for your festival or event!
