The Divas:
Allyson Paige is a San Francisco Bay Area singer-songwriter with a large and lusty
voice. After performing extensively around the Bay Area as the lead singer with San
Francisco guitarist Chris Cobb, Allyson headed out on her own. Her solo CD Blue
Horizon is a heartfelt and emotional experience not to be missed!
Singer/songwriter/keyboardist Linda Ferro
has been involved in the North Bay Area music scene for 20
years. Her passion for performing arts has included private piano
and voice instruction, musical directing and composing for school and community theatres, recording project/studio
work, and solo and band performance. Linda is now drinking in the energy and soul of
the blues, singing and playing
her little heart out to move an audience with Blue Blazes, and continuing to develop
her original material.
Singer/songwriter/guitarist Nancy Pritchard has performed in concerts,
festivals and clubs throughout the Bay Area of San Francisco and in New Zealand where she
was resident for many years. Her most prominent work in the U.S. as rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist
for Planet Blues (which she co-founded with Mike
Merczog) resulted in the release of the CD Groove Orbit. She now expresses her funky sweet-devil soul in the
R&B inspired gospel band "SoulJoy" and with "Women of Blues," and
does vocal session work for other artists.
