Texan Teen guitar
prodigy Ally Venable to release Texas Honey
on Ruf Records March 22nd
A powerhouse from the Lone Star State, the Ally Venable Band has ignited excitement in the modern blues scene.
Lead vocalist and guitarist, 19 year-old Ally
Venable, started singing at an early age in church and when she turned 12, picked
up the guitar, and there was no turning back. Guitar Player Magazine stated
that, "Venable pulls off a stunner of gritty and/or sultry blues-rock
tunes embellished with lots of tasty guitar solos."
A recipient of many awards, Ally has is a two-time winner of the
East Texas Music Award for “Female Guitarist of the Year " and was also
three-time ETX Music Award winner for “Blues Band of the Year" and
"Album of the Year"-
Ally’s bandmates are multi-instrumentalists. Bassist, Bobby
Wallace is a master at his craft and his years of experience enhance the band.
Classically trained musician and drummer, Elijah Owings, brings a steady, but
dynamic sound to the band. He is the backbone of their rockin’ blues
sound.

hat to the greats with a grooving cover of Careless Love Blues and a
love-letter to SRV on a mojo-packed Love Struck Baby.
It’s the cherry atop the first great breakout record of 2019 – from a Texas legend-in-waiting with everything coming her way. “I’m very grateful,” reflects Ally, “for all the cool things that have happened, are happening – and will happen…”
