About Cora Fluker
Blues musician, born in Livingston, Alabama, around 1920. Known for blues, ballads, work songs and spirituals. Cora Fluker grew up on a cotton plantation near Livingston, Alabama. From an early age she sang in the cotton fields leading a family work gang. A deeply traditional artist with a large repertoire of work songs, spirituals, blues and ballads, she is the niece of Rich Amerson and Vera Hall, who recorded extensively for the Lomaxes. She made a one-string guitar as a youngster and credits her Uncle Amerson as inspiration and mentor. Moving to Marion, Mississippi, she built up a church congregation. Her years as a missionary and church leader make her as confidant a stage personality equally adept at sacred and secular material. She performed at the Chicago Blues Festival in 1992 and the Sunflower Blues Festival in Mississippi in 1993.
