Official Son House “Preachin’ the Blues” Coffee Mug.

Son House was, in many ways, a living embodiment of the Blues. Eddie James "Son" House Jr was born in the Mississippi Delta around 1902, and became both a prolific delta blues musician and a fiery preacher in a time when churches derided blues as devil's music. Son House's haunting, deeply personal music set a course for waves of Blues and Rock n Roll.

This officially licensed Son House Mug features a licensed photo by noted photographer and Son House's manager, Dick Waterman.

The Son House design is printed on BOTH SIDES of this premium 11 ounce Bluescentric Brand ceramic music coffee mug. It is dishwasher and microwave safe.
