DONA OXFORD

Step Up

2008-04-01

Dona is making the piano her blues transporter. It takes her voice and band on an all original 13 song trip all over the blues landscape. From soulful slowburners to gospel influenced blues to rollicking, rolling, rockers she backs her vocal talents with her excellent keyboard skills, whether on piano, Wurlitzer, organ or clave. All are worth a listen but her a capella “I Am” is a wonderful tribute to being a women. - Anne Lamont
