Simple Case Of The Blues CD
Over the course of her career beginning with her band The Screaming Sirens, Rosie Flores has jumped feet first into punk rock, country music, alt-country, straight-up rock, and rockabilly.
With the latter she become known as the Rockabilly Filly, but through it all she was The Chick with the Pick.
Profiled in Guitar World, Premiere Guitar and Guitar Player magazines, Flores has been cited as one of the Top 75 Greatest Female Guitarists of All Time.
In recent years, Rosie worked with pioneer female rockabilly artists Wanda Jackson and Janis Martin in an effort to help propel them back into the spotlight.
In 2007, she won a Peabody Award for those efforts, and her narration of the rockabilly documentary Whole Lotta Shakin’.
Flores later produced the The Blanco Sessions, which would prove to be Janis Martin’s last recording.
Simple Case of the Blues brings Flores full circle, and takes square aim at a genre she has only touched on in the past.
She lends her soulful voice and fiery guitar to songs by Roy Brown, Heath Wilson, and a spate of new originals.
Simple Case of the Blues was, says Flores, a long time coming: “I got infatuated with the blues in high school,” says Flores.
“It was the first music I ever played.”
She returns to the blues now as a seasoned performer steeped in life’s uncompromising lessons.
