Mississippi River Songs w/ Robert Robinson and Tim Frantzich on the Music Yacht

A couple of years ago, gospel great Robert Robinson and folk songsmith Timothy Frantzich set out on a musical journey: to follow the Mississippi River from its headwaters at Lake Itasca all the way to New Orleans, writing songs inspired by the river, the animals and the people, history, and landscapes they encountered along the way.

Join us for an unforgettable evening aboard the Music Yacht, a stunningly beautiful floating music studio, as
Robert and Timothy share these songs while bobbing on the Mississippi herself. There’s something mystical about hearing music born from the river while surrounded by its beauty. It promises to be a magical evening of stories, songs, and the timeless spirit of the Mississippi.
