[CD]
This new album, Voodoo In The Shadows, is a self-produced session by the multi-talented guitarist/singer/songwriter, exploring the allure of the back roads from Memphis, through Mississippi, to New Orleans and down to the Gulf. In 11 songs, including 9 originals, we hear stories of respect, partying, attitude, mystery, sensuality and love. Joining her are two Australian band-mates: multi-instrumentalist Tim Neal (Hammond B3, piano, bass and baritone sax) and drummer/percussionist Mark Gruden, plus Johnny Sansone, one of New Orleans’ finest musicians, who adds his harmonica and accordion to richly season this international gumbo!
