WDVX is proud to present another night of free live music on the big stage at Yee-Haw Brewing for the 2026 Summer Nights concert series!
Jeanine’s rich contralto tone, broad vocal range, eclectic mixed styles of soul, blues, jazz, gospel, rock, some classical, along with her various musical influences, ranging from Etta James, Dianne Reeves, Chaka Khan to Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson & Prince, she is sure to captivate and convey soulful engaging, inspiring performances.
Her vast versatility goes from leading and performing with her dynamic, Soul/Funk based Tribute Band, Jeanine Fuller and The True Funk SOULdiers, to performing regularly for her loyal, locally based fans either as solo name sake band, or in more intImate acoustic style jazz/blues/soul duo and trio settings, throughout.
Jeanine’s versatility, powerful self affirming lyrics and catchy hooks are embodied in her recently debuted EP album, entitled, Endurance, will inspire and enlighten both young and older audiences alike. She is grateful that her music has gained attention both in the US and abroad.
In 2025 Jeanine earned International awards as Best Vocalist -multi genre and for her single, “How Long”. She is also a 5 time U.S. Independent award nominee, including as Vocalist of the Year (R&B/Soul & Adult Contemporary), as well as Jazz/Blues Album/EP of the Year!
Jeanine is also the 2025 Regional International Blues Challenge winner, sending her to the Finals in Memphis in January 2026.
Blue Mother Tupelo is Ricky and Micol Davis.
Life for (The) Blue Mother Tupelo began in Knoxville, Tennessee as a duo in 1995, melding into various experimental configurations, from first performances at open-mic nights to a blues-rock electric quartet then on to a kind of acoustic driven soulful country blues duo.
2020 found Blue Mother Tupelo celebrating 25 years of music together. 2021 found BMT continuing along pretty quietly in conjunction with pandemic hurdles. 2022 resounded with Love, Soul & a successful crowd-funding campaign in support of 2023’s new album released in July!
Blue Mother Tupelo was chosen as 2022’s Music Artist Of The Year by The Southland Music Line. Read the article HERE.
Ricky & Micol moved to Hendersonville, TN – on the edge of Nashville in 1998 as they lived, worked, & toured – writing songs and recording for 21 years until heading to the quieter cusp of the North Mississippi hill country near the Delta just south of Memphis. Como, Mississippi is now called home.
