PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (PRWEB) JUNE 1, 2022
Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club Features 3x-Blues Music Award-Winner & 9x-Blues Music Award Nominated Guitarist, Singer & Songwriter SUE FOLEY on Thursday June 16 at 7:30 P.M. Sue Foley is the “Traditional Blues Female Artist of the Year” and “Traditional Blues Album of the Year” (Pinky’s Blues) Award-Winner at the 2022 Blues Music Awards.
Sue Foley is a multi-award-winning musician and one of the finest blues and roots artists working today. She is a veritable triple-threat. Foley’s first release, ‘Young Girl Blues’, quickly rooted her unique talents as a proficient blues guitarist, inspired songwriter and captivating vocalist. Foley has toured steadily with her band, toting her signature pink paisley Fender Telecaster—working and sharing the stage with greats such as BB King, Buddy Guy, Lucinda Williams and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. In 2001, she won the prestigious Juno Award (Canadian equivalent of the Grammy) for her CD, ‘Love Coming Down’. Foley also holds the record for the most Maple Blues Awards (seventeen) and has earned three “Trophees de Blues de France”. She has also garnered 9 Nominations at the Blues Music Awards in Memphis, TN – winning her first Blues Music Award in 2020 for “Traditional Blues Female Artist of the Year.”
- “An admitted standout,” says DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE.
- “This country’s finest blues guitarist,” raves TORONTO GLOBE AND MAIL.
- “One of the premier modern blues guitarists,” claims GUITAR PLAYER MAGAZINE.
Sue Foley, an Ottawa, Canada native, started her professional career at 16 and by the age of 21, moved to Austin, Texas to record for Antone’s, the esteemed blues label and historic nightclub that helped launch the career of Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Fabulous Thunderbirds and many others. As with many blues women of the past, Foley has a long history of defying convention and being a positive role model for aspiring, young female musicians.
“We are excited to have 2022 “Traditional Blues Female Artist of the Year” and “Traditional Blues Album of the Year” Award-Winning Guitarist, Singer & Songwriter Sue Foley at Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club,” said Suzanne Bresette, the Managing Director of Programming at Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club. “It will will be another exciting night of amazing blues on Jimmy’s stage this summer!”
