Bluesfest: Thornetta Davis

Detroit's Thornetta Davis first came to my attention as a backing singer for Big Chief (a post she's also filled with Kid Rock), but ever since her first album she's hewed more closely to traditional R&B and blues. She does it so well, who could complain?

Guitar action with Paul Carey!



Conga action with James “Jamalot” Anderson! (Also Davis's husband, as it happens.)



You can't say Paul doesn't enjoy his work.



"And now, the lady we've all been waiting for!" (Or words to that effect.)



I'm not sure who was manning the kit for her this go-around.



Thornetta Davis, at last!



Hmm ... I'm not sure tie-die is her thing.



Scarf-waving action!



Black and white blues action!



And a wee bit more Paul.



No word on recent activity.
