Markey Blue“Markey Blue – The unexpected find… a fascinating new discovery… a band with that ‘wow’ factor is always a welcome and wonderful part of any blues adventure. It was the crack of noon, as we filed into the Hard Rock Cafe after a long, exciting night at the 2014 Blues Music Awards. The musical foray is unbeatable. Yet… you cross your fingers, waiting to see who the new ‘someone’ will be and how they will add a thrilling twist to the mix of players. That show, as always, held true to our expectations.

“The afternoon was off to a rocking start. After a major change up… as is the way it goes – to change the players and the dimensions of the show – a striking beauty appeared on the stage. Actually, she ‘exploded’ onto the stage and ‘wow’ is what everyone was saying. The band of the moment was fronted by Markey, a bold, big-voiced, ‘no holds barred’ songstress. The very tight, talented and zest-filled band that followed Markey on stage was announced as… Markey Blue. Yes, folks this was THE find of the Blues Music Awards weekend.  This blues fan was not disappointed!”

– Jonnye Weber, President –  Blues Society of Western Pennsylvania
