Robert Connely Farr / Mississippi Live & the Dirty Dirty - Hurtin'

Mississippi Live & the Dirty Dirty are an Alt-Country / SouthernRock / Heavy-Blues band out of Vancouver, Canada. They have release 3 full length studio albums and one EP. 
The band is headed up by singer-songwriter Robert Connely Farr, who grew up in the small southern town of Bolton, Mississippi, home town of Charley Patton & The Mississippi Sheiks. Prior to moving to Vancouver, he studied architecture at Auburn University & graduated from the late Samuel Mockbee's Rural Studio non-profit design build school. Connely currently resides in Vancouver, Canada but when he's at home in Mississippi, can most likely be found pickin & grinnin at the Blue Front Cafe in Bentonia, Mississippi with his friend & mentor Jimmy "Duck" Holmes
In 2018, Robert Connely Farr teamed up with Leeroy Stagger and the Rebeltone Boys to release "Dirty South Blues" - which was met with widespread critical acclaim.
"Vancouver's best Southern Rock Band... Southern like The Bottle Rockets. These guys know the value of a riff and they can drill it into your brain." - R. Doull - BC Musician Magazine - on Going Down (2015)
"If Pearl Jam’s and the Drive By Truckers’ tour busses collided en route to a Neil Young show in New Orleans, the result might sound like Mississippi Live and the Dirty Dirty’s CD “Going Down.” - Richard Amery - LA Beat - on Going Down (2015)
"It's not stoner rock, it's not metal, it's not even country; it's a mish mash of everything that gets my goat & ticks my clock. The tone of the guitars ring with a grandiose nostalgia, twangy enough to lure in a country bumpkin, sophisticated enough to impress bearded brethren of the urban variety & powerful enough to send shivers down the spine of a statue." - The Huntsman - Ripple Music Blogspot on discography (2009 - 2016)
"...no BS rock... one of the most critically-acclaimed vocalists on the west coast... a Steve Earle for today..." Canadian Bands - on Going Down (2015)
"Farr's voice is in itself a more than convincing impact... the sober ballad "On The Inside" presents itself as a young Springsteen" Written In Music - on I Ain't Dyin' (2016)
"The sound of the music sinks just as deeply into new soil as it did into Delta mud... Mississippi Live and the Dirty Dirty play it dirty..." The Alternate Root Magazine - on I Ain't Dyin' (2016)
