“West Coast Women’s Blues Revue is a showcase of firepower talent from four of the best in the business. Supersonic vocalists Patti Allen and Lady A, along with mutli-instrumentalist Stacy Jones and Teri Anne Wilson deliver a TKO House Rockin’ Blues, R&B and Soul extravaganza not to be missed.“ – Seattle Examiner
“They brought the house down! The show was amazing, full of energy and a soulfulness that brought tears to the eyes at times.“ – Olympic Cellars Winery
“To hear the West Coast Women’s blues, funk and R&B is to hear the feminine perspective on life. Singers such as Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith laid the foundation for what this group does: sing from the heart as mothers, daughters, sisters or all of the above.“ – Peninsula Daily News
“West Coast Women’s Blues Revue showcase is like having a mini festival unto itself. A powerhouse band backing a variety of phenomenal female blues headliners!”
– Rick Bowen, VP, Washington Blues Society
