Lady sings the blues… If you have come here looking for Ms Day, the one and only Billie Holliday, stay tuned for another post. This post is strictly about some of the great blues women and some of their songs I featured today in my set list.
I love being a DJ!! Be it for a radio station, a club or a party. Best job in the world, folks! Doesn’t really qualify as a job in my opinion, I enjoy it too much. Music makes life worth living, and I enjoy sharing great music to the world and introducing artists to people who have never heard them before. Tonight’s set was well received, and introduced a few people to not only how wonderful

the Blues is, but how powerful the female role in the genre still is. I have linked to all the artist websites. Check them out, buy some tunes! Enjoy!
