West Michigan native Debra Farris, brings her blues style to her new CD, Gotcha Covered. With her eloquent interpretation of 12 of the 14 songs. Covering the classics from jazz Route 66 and Stromy Monday too pop rock of Van Morrison, Moon Dance and the earliest Beatles, I Saw Her Standing There. Also paying tribute to Bill Withers with, Use Me Up and Ain't No Sunshine. I have the feeling that this is a very personal project for Miss Farris adding 2 original songs to the mix as she uses music to express her deep feelings and emotion. With her band of Michael Hallstrom creamie lead guitar leads and the steady rhythm of Chris Hansen on bass and Chris "CJT" Thomas on drums, Debra has got it all covered. SlipIRMA THOMAS
