Sari Schorr (USA)

Sari Schorr and her band are one of the most crowd-pleasing, gut-wrecking, festival-killing live acts out right now. Sari has a nearly superhuman level of energy that she puts into her shows. You will hear a voice like no other that is hyper powerful, husky, muscular, with an incredible texture and range. She is able to deliver sentences as a boxer would pick up an uppercut to his opponent. Sari has been called the ‘First Lady of the Blues’ and it’s a struggle to think of anyone else right now who deserves the title more. Her highly crafted songs highlight just how good Schorr is at invoking passion, grit, and empathy.  Channelling the voices Grace Slick, Big Mama Thornton and Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Sari Schorr is the embodiment of the best that modern American electric blues has to offer.

Now with a new, electrifying band, including one of the most exciting young contemporary guitar players and singers on the blues scene today: Ash Wilson, nominated as Best Blues guitarist of 2017 by Total Guitar magazine.
This is an exceptional show and one that suggests that if you dig Blues Rock music you should sell your soul for a ticket to see her on this tour. Just one visit to see this emotionally-charged critically acclaimed performer will assure you that this vocal volcano is a real-deal force of nature. NOT TO BE MISSED!
