Here’s to celebrating International Women’s Day 3/8/25 We are all #Queens today doing the unseen thankless work making a house a home, building companies sometimes from the front leading, most times from the back supporting. We sacrifice ourselves to make the world love.

I wanted to highlight the often overlooked talented women who have dedicated their work, their life and world to the music of #theblues, and it’s historic #AmericanRoots. I may not have started out in blues yet #Bluesrock chose me over my many years of performing.
