| About Shalom Andrews |
|
Shalom is a singer-songwriter and is debuting her original work in Tortured Willow, an indi-rock blues/roots band. Working with guitarist (and former class-mate) Jordan Roach she has been jamming with him for ten months to produce down to earth, slide blues inspired music. See www.myspace.com/torturedwillow
Shalom is also lead singer in Bessie, a collaboration with bedrock blues pianist Adrian Buzo. This outfit is often set to the rocking blues rhythms of the 1950s New Orleans sound leaving room for Ma Rainey, Dinah Washington, the songs of WC Handy and the rockabilly of early Elvis. Songs include eccentric lyrics about ‘easy riders’, ‘boll weevils’ and ‘jelly rolls.’ They are also about love – careless, jealous, tender, found at last then lost, and all whistle stops in between.
"Shalom Andrews is an evocative performer whose powerful voice transports audiences to another time." Drum Media
