Pianist Eden Brent Receives Mississippi Arts Commission Artist Fellowship

New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - The Mississippi Arts Council in association with the National Endowment for the Arts has awarded the Delta's boogie-woogie piano queen Eden Brent the Mississippi Arts Commission Artist Fellowship for her outstanding work as a recording artist. The honor joins a long list of accolades Brent has garnered over the course of her career, including the 2010 Blues Music Award for Pinetop Perkins Piano Player of the Year.

Brent was recently a guest on Mississippi Public Broadcasting where she dazzled host Karen Brown with her signature laugh and tales from her excellent new CD 'Ain't Got No Troubles (9/7, Yellow Dog Records): https://bit.ly/a66voQ

Garden & Gun magazine calls Brent's new record "fantastic...onstage, she's a dynamo, pounding the keys while she sings and hollers like she's straight out of a juke joint." The Wall Street Journal calls Brent "a force to reckon with...aggressive, sultry, hot and cool."

Fellowships are awarded to artists dedicated to the celebration of Mississippi's cultural heritage.
