(WTVA) – Tupelo native Silas Caldwell is returning to his hometown for a special performance at the Elvis Presley Birthplace in October. Caldwell was born and raised in Tupelo and now lives in Nashville, Tennessee.  He describes himself as a modern torchbearer of Mississippi music, bringing the sounds of Mississippi hill country blues to audiences through high-energy performances. His musical career started at a young age. Caldwell began performing professionally as a child and says he performed on Broadway at just 13 years old.   Since then, his performance credits have included work with artists and entertainers such as Mason Ramsey and Druski. Caldwell will bring his music back home on Oct. 15 as part of a performance at the Elvis Presley Birthplace. Watch the interview above for more details.  Copyright 2026 WTVA.
