DEBRA DEVI
https://debradevi.com/home
If you love “dreamy blues/rock and blistering psychedelic jams” (Relix), you’re in for an exciting ride with Debra Devi and her powerhouse band. Devi blends soulful vocals with expressive, soaring guitar work that’s earned her comparisons to Ana Popovic, Samantha Fish and Susan Tedeschi.
American Blues Scene calls Devi “one of today's top female blues/rock guitarists.”
Her live EP Jamification Station Vol. 1 captured her at full throttle, hitting #5 on the Relix/Jambands.com radio chart and staying on there for three months. She’s one of just a few guitarists invited to endorse Homestead Amps, joining names like Warren Haynes and Jimmy Herring.
Hailing from Jersey City, NJ, Devi’s band is Kevin Jones on bass, John Roccesano on drums and Brian Rigby on keys. Devi’s passion for the blues inspired her to write The Language of the Blues: From Alcorub to Zuzu (foreword by Dr. John), which won the ASCAP Deems Taylor Award.
SKYLA BURRELL BAND
https://skylaburrell.com/home
Skyla Burrell was born in Los Angeles and raised in Orange County, California. Skyla formed her first band at the age of 13 and has been a working musician ever since. Skyla played with several bands as a teenager and young adult, working her way up and down Southern California. She relocated to the East Coast in her early 20's where she continued learning and growing from her musical experiences and eventually co-forming the Skyla Burrell Band. In addition to her singing, writing and guitar duties, Skyla also plays the piano.
KATIE HENRY

The New Jersey songwriter might have started out banging on doors, braving New York's blues clubs, playing piano until her fingers bled, and winning over the city one show at a time. But lately, the multi-instrumentalist has raced through career milestones at a rocket pace.
There was her Blues Blast and IBMA-nominated 2018 debut album, High Road. Her international breakout on Ruf's 2022 Blues Caravan Revue. Her starburst of media acclaim, including Henry Yates of Classic Rock, NME, and The Guardian, saluted "a runaway talent you need to keep up with."
Now, with the release of her second album, On My Way, Katie has found another gear. Whether slinging her trusty Gibson SG, hammering the keys, or hollering up a storm, these ten original songs, co-written with bassist and slide-guitar maestro Antar Goodwin, announced her as an alchemist who creates gemstones from the base metals of American roots.
