Few towns in the Mississippi Delta have a history as closely tied to cotton agriculture as Lambert. Set in Quitman County, the community belongs to the broad alluvial plain known as the Mississippi Delta, an inland region shaped by the Mississippi River’s long influence rather than the Gulf Coast. Its streets and surrounding fields reflect the small-town settlement pattern of the Delta. Lambert also has a place in American music: blues guitarist and singer Big Jack Johnson was born here. The town provides a grounded stop for understanding the rural setting behind one of the United States’ most influential musical traditions.
