The Tina Cossey Band will return to Southwest Arkansas this fall as part of the 2026 Mid-South Music Festival. The blues group is scheduled to perform at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 17, on the Southwest Auto Collection Stage.

Known for her smoky, soulful vocals, captivating stage presence, and heartfelt storytelling, Tina Cossey has led the band since November 2022. Her performances blend authentic blues traditions with a deep appreciation for Arkansas’s rich musical heritage while championing and uplifting female musicians in the industry.

The band previously performed at the 2025 Mid-South Music Festival and will return to the festival lineup this year.

Tina brought the house down at our 2025 festival, and we’re excited to welcome her back in 2026,” said Festival Coordinator Jenna Friday. “Her powerful voice, incredible musicianship, and genuine connection with audiences create an unforgettable experience. We know festivalgoers are going to enjoy seeing her take the Southwest Auto Collection Stage on October 17!

Each year, the Mid-South Music Festival draws thousands of attendees and showcases both regional talent and nationally touring artists. Held in the heart of historic downtown Arkadelphia, the event remains free to attend thanks to the generous support of local sponsors and community partners.
