Angela Strehli & Tracy Nelson, w/ special guest Ron Thompson Two great blues women — former Mother Earth lead singer Tracy Nelson and Austin, Texas-belter Angela Strehli — team up in this dynamic collaboration, backed by a superb band led by San Francisco guitarist Ron Thompson. “Singer Angela Strehli was one of the original members of the Austin, Texas, blues scene that began in the early 1970s. Along with Stevie Ray, Jimmie Vaughan, Kim Wilson, Lou Ann Barton and other noted Austin musicians, Strehli helped create a rock and rhythm and blues-influenced sound that helped spur the blues revival of the 1980s." — “The Big Book of Blues” by Robert Santelli Angela Strehli is a gifted singer and songwriter, a Texas-blues historian, impresario and fan. Born in Lubbock, Texas, Strehli comes out of the same windswept town that produced Buddy Holly, Joe Ely, Waylon Jennings and Jimmie Dale Gilmore. "[Tracy Nelson’s] unparalleled voice can knock you down at 20 feet or seduce you into oblivion." —Billboard magazine The versatile and talented Tracy Nelson is best known for her role as lead singer of Mother Earth. But Nelson is just as capable in soul, R&B and blues. She garnered Grammy Award nominations in 1974 for "After the Fire Is Gone," a duet with Willie Nelson, and again in 1993 for “Sing It!,” her project with Irma Thomas and Marcia Ball. Nelson is a gifted songwriter as well as interpreter and has seen her originals covered by such heavyweights as Etta James, Bonnie Raitt and Linda Rondstadt. The duo’s superb backing band is led by veteran San Francisco guitarist Ron Thompson. Thompson, himself a formidable bluesman, has performed with such legends as Big Mama Thornton, Sonny Rhodes, Luther Tucker, Jimmy McCracklin, Pee Wee Crayton, Carla Thomas, Percy Mayfield, Etta James, B.B. King, and Jimmy Reed, and was a member of John Lee Hooker's band for several years. Though this grouping hardly needs extra firepower, Strehli and Nelson get that and more when they are joined by The Texas Horns.
