Girls With Guitars September 22, 2011

The name says it all. 'Girls with Guitars' presents three of the scene's hottest young female guitar slingers on a single stage: Dani Wilde, Cassie Taylor and Samantha Fish. Hailing from Brighton, England, Dani Wilde sings the blues with the old-school fervor of Aretha Franklin, but also takes a cue from contemporaries like Duffy and Joss Stone. At the tender age of 21, Samantha Fish is already a hot property on the live music scene in and around her hometown of Kansas City, Missouri. She discovered the blues almost by accident as a teenager, but it has since become her singular mission in life. Her high-heeled, rock-edged performances have won her a loyal local following. Proud to call herself the "Daughter of a Bluesman," multi-instrumentalist Cassie Taylor has appeared on eight critically-acclaimed albums by her father, Otis Taylor, and accompanied him on tours all over the world. Her music ranges from heart-wrenching ballads to hard-driving blues.
