Cathy Lemons has become a legend among San Francisco and Bay area blues circuits With more than twenty five years of professional career, Cathy is sometimes known as the most charismatic West Coast white skin singer, because she is gifted with a velvety hypnotic tone and a voice that could remind Howlin’ Wolf’s one but with a woman’s pitch Born in Dallas, Texas, Cathy Lemons has gradually hardened herself and become an experienced artist near such great musicians like Anson Funderburg, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Lee Hooker, Tommy Castro, Ron Thompson, Kid Andersen, Steve Freund and many others she has shared stage or done tours with This new job is an excellent summary of pure and traditional blues, gospel and rhythm and blues Moreover, she adds a special different touch to the music she plays, with some funk in the path of James Brown, a little bit of Memphis soul and a pinch of soft loving Delta blues Six of the ten songs included are Cathy Lemon’s own ones, the rest are covers by Kim Wilson, Earl King, James Brown and Kieran Kane of the O’Kanes band This is an album to be pleasantly savored from the begining to the end
