Amy LaVere

Came across her last weekend appearing on Jool's show, had never heard of her before but enjoyed the two numbers that they did. She opened up for Seasick Steve at his recent Royal Albert Hall gig, and “coincidentally” or not he appeared in this show – now playing a guitar with all six strings.

Originally from somewhere on the Texas/Louisiana border she is now based in Memphis and is touring over here until the end of the month. Check out the dates at her site – would love to make the one on Monday at a village hall in Cumbria but that is not going to happen.



Here is a song called Take 'em or leave 'em from her first album, from the same gig as the other clip - shame that her bass does not feature strong in the mix on these.
