Call the Blues line today!!
Sue Foley is considered one of the finest
blues/roots artists working today. She is internationally known as one
of the best and most original artists working in her field. She is an
accomplished guitarist, songwriter and vocalist. Although only in her
thirties, she has been writing and playing for over twenty years. Sue
is about to release her tenth studio CD called “New Used Car” due out
in April 2006, which promises to take her even further down the road of
an already very successful career.
She
has nine other CD’s out; five from legendary Austin based blues label
Antone’s, three on New York independent Shanachie and the most recent
live acoustic CD ‘Change’ on Ruf Records from Germany and Justin Time
in Canada. Also coming in spring 2006 is the live DVD “Sue Foley, Live
in Germany” also on Ruf Records.
Sue has
spent over eighteen years on the road as bandleader, lead guitar player
and manager of her own band. In addition to her own shows she has
shared the stage and opened up for star performers BB King, Buddy Guy,
Koko Taylor, George Thorogood, Tom Petty, Joe Cocker and many more.
In 2000 she was honored in her home country with her first Juno Award
(Canadian equivalent to the Grammy) for Best Blues Album for her CD
“Love Comin’ Down”. Since 1999 she has received a record setting
seventeen Maple Blues Awards and three Trophee De Blues in France. Sue
was also nominated for a prestigious W.C. Handy Award for best
contemporary female artist in 2002.
When
Sue is not touring or raising her son she is busy pursuing artistic and
financial independence. She started her own company, Guitar Woman Inc.
and has plans to start her own record label. But Sue’s largest project,
her esteemed “Guitar Woman” book is what takes most of her time and
energy (see www.guitarwoman.com).
Since 2001 Sue has been writing and conducting interviews with the
world’s finest female guitar players. The book’s release, scheduled for
2007 promises to be the biggest moment of Sue’s career. Along with the
book plans are in the works for “Guitar Woman” tours and a documentary.
With
her tenth CD, a live DVD and a book in the works, Sue is just beginning
new chapter in her career, and it promises to be the best one yet.
