The Mississippi Valley Blues Society presents Fender bending guitarist Skyla Burrell, and her band at Harley Corin’s, 1708 State Street, Bettendorf, IA. The show begins at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 11.
The cost to see this performance will be $8 if you are a Mississippi Valley Blues Society member, or $10 if you have not yet joined (application will be available at the door and on our website, www.mvbs.org).
Skyla Burrell hails from Southern Pennsylvania, and brings to the blues a ferocious vocal style and Fender string bending that will electrify the room.
With co-founder Mark Tomlinson on lead guitar, and Skyla on vocals/lead guitar, the band's live show consists of all original high energy electric blues.
Called “one of the most smokin' blues bands in the US”, the band’s ten year history bares out in its fiery, vibrant live performances. Skyla Burrell’s voice not only shines, but her guitar work also cuts through.
Music Monthly magazine said "Many women in the blues have great voices and have made their careers singing the blues, but not too many can double it up, slice it, dice it and sacrifice it on the best Fender has to offer like Skyla can."
