    Season 1, Episode 3: Murder in the Key of Blues
    Mar 30 2025

    This week on Musical Murders, we unravel the shadowy final days of a blues legend. Sonny Boy Williamson — harmonica virtuoso, enigmatic drifter, and one of the most influential voices in American music — met a mysterious end in 1948. But the story they told doesn’t add up.

    Was it a simple act of street violence? Or was the bluesman's death part of a deeper, darker melody — one of betrayal, jealousy, and a legacy worth killing for?

    Tune in as we trace the crime, the cover-up, and the haunting echoes that still linger in every bent note he played.
