There's no doubt that the 80's, as a decade, has been a very prolific one, musically speaking, in terms of revealing an incredible amount of talented Pop artists to the world.
It's also true that some of them might have been a one hit wonder only or not lasting very long for reasons, perhaps, related to either creativity drainage, or simply because they had not been able to move forward, stylistically and lyrically in the next decades.

There is something very comforting in hearing that an artist, in these days and age, keeps on being loyal to the music roots where said artist comes from, as the years go by.

Modern blues roots guitar wielding champion, Samantha Fish, has been a leader in keeping the blues alive - and helping blues rock evolve. Leadership knows their audience and engages their passions. Leadership builds trust, then pushes the boundaries of curiosity and human connection. A free fall of thousands of people into the collective consciousness of total immersion does not happen by accident.
From a teenager cold calling bars, Samantha has been comfortable on stages, and she levels the field between artist and fan. She immediately welcomes the crowd into her wavelength. Once attuned, the energy twists, turns, with deliciously, deliriously blinding fire, and sends us off into exhilaration. Rooted in Kansas City blues, and influenced by artists from Prince to Leonard Cohen, as well as the legends of Mississippi Hill Country blues, she has created her own sound, and newcomers to her shows are often unprepared for her mighty power.
