Ally Venable - Backwater Blues - 8/28/21 Hot August Music Festival - Cockeysville, MD

[@asdf9890]

Talent, beauty, blues rock, and a P90 Les Paul! ❤❤❤. Wish I was there drinking a beer!

[@alanwatson3367]

This girl needs more attention come on people

[@paulym5814]

Wow, she can sing, she can play the blues and she is beautiful! Take a bow young lady. You rock!

[@tsomers01]

Who gives something like this a thumbs down? My goodness, this woman rocks!

[@daveb40361]

If I could give you 10 thumbs up (and her a hundred), I would. She's awesome!

[@jeremyhrbek6355]

That’s what you call jealousy brother

[@timhoovermusicman]

Guys who can't play.

[@allieplaysblues]

Saw her last month. Absolutely incredible!

[@jackdonahue8773]

a jealous guitarist

[@edyak6280]

I love to see a musician express their personality through their playing… I just saw that here and have been thoroughly blown away. Ms.Venable, take a bow.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@davidvallone1476]

Just stumbled upon her.. She's really great!!! Texas gal.. Nice to see the younger generation keep the blues alive and very well.

[@donalderpel4858]

So many talented young musicians out there, and all we gonna hear on the stations is the mainstream bullshit

[@jackmiller4946]

WNCW Spindale N.C. Public radio is the best radio station in the world. It plays young new musicians no matter the genre . They play blues to bluegrass. Rap to metal and a lot of local music. It’s right next to Asheville N.C. Which is like a smaller Austin TX so they get great musicians that go to Asheville to play music in their studio to promote their music.

[@williamgregory6684]

Unfortunately,thats pretty much the way it's always been.I'm 66 and I've been listening to music since I was 3.Go figure.I have to say the young lady and band are a joy to listen to and are extremely talented.l'm glad to know the music will live on after I'm gone.

[@gitaneVYS491R]

Sad. There are loads of decent musicians playing decent songs to sparse audiences while the media "bigs up" celebrity mime artists who sell their product by the ship load and are selling out arenas and stadiums.

[@CorneiliusLibowitz]

@@jackmiller4946 WMOT out of Nashville, TN is my goto station.....Molly Tuttle, Samantha Fish, Sierra Hull, Sierra Ferrel and the list goes on.....none of which ever get any regular radio airplay. I've been saying in these comments sections commercial radio sucks-azz.... Now, i'm gonna hafta check out this WNCW.............

[@vincentlussier8264]

Exactly doesn't that piss you off?

[@michaelclarkson2218]

Wow I'm so impressed. Just beautiful music. The vocals and guitar are perfection. I really love this. Ally Venables is amazing. I could listen to her for hours on end.

[@rumpledskin7971]

She started slow with some Delta stuff on the electric and then took off into wild Texas Blues à la SRV. Nice to know the younger generation is keeping the blues alive.

[@robpattison6606]

do you like Eric Gales?

[@rumpledskin7971]

@@robpattison6606 Haven't really heard him. In Blues, I listen to John Mayall, BB King, SRV, Hendrix, Clapton, Freddie King, Albert King, Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, ZZ Top, Elmore James, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and a lot of the Chicago school. Don't really listen much to contemporary blues artistes except Kenny Wayne Shephard. Guitarists like Joe Bonamassa and Christone "Kingfish" Ingram are way too flashy for my taste -- it's almost like heavy metal shredding and I find the blues feel/essence missing, Sorry but I'm a little old school so far as the blues is concerned.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you from Australia. There's just not enough blues down here.

[@arthurblackhistoric]

And another thank you from Australia!!!!

[@tazmankb26]

I love the great Bondi Cigars band though- we dig them and I'm from Texas

[@ThatGuy-bp4gz]

@@tazmankb26 true that. We've got some great blues bands down here (btw try "The Backsliders" if you like Bondi Cigars). Just not the wonderful blues smorgasbord you get to enjoy in the States. Can't wait for COVID to be over, so I can get some live blues into me. Until then... long live KZbin.

Don,t forget Kevin Borich.

Je découvre seulement Ally Venable band (15.04.2023) j 'ai du travail , il faut que j 'écoute ses 7 albums . TOP Je repasse en boucle cette vidéo .

[@jamesbrown55]

Could you imagine if Howlin Wolf Muddy Waters Lightnin Hopkins and John Lee Hooker could come back to life and see that performance. I know they would be proud that the musical Legacy they left us is still being carried on today. The future of the Blues is in good hands

[@ianniel9000]

James Brown, just seems a little strange that most of the people I see and hear playing the blues now seem to be white. This is no way a criticism, just a reflection that this fantastic genre of music (best there is IMO) may be taking a different direction. Which is great. So let’s not hear any crap about cultural misappropriation. There has always been a white blues music heard in folk, especially from Europe ( e.g. fado), and country music. But it was the style that dare not speak its name - now we have modern ‘electric blues’ being taken forward by a new generation of brilliant musicians. And I think you are so right when you refer to the absolute greats, they would be blown away with it!

[@robpattison6606]

they’d be more blown away by dewds like Eric Gales

[@gordonhuskin7337]

LMAO no, they absolutely would not. They would be ashamed of the fanny pack blues from the 1980's onward. just pure CRINGE

[@jhsams1977]

The future of real music is not lost.

[@peterfield4314]

Just love her music so hope to see her live when she plays in England love you Ally💖🌼🎸

[@vicprovost2561]

So glad I bumped into this, yet another ferocious lady on vocals and guitar, wow, she is great. Lots of great females rocking out now a days, so happy to see good music still being made. I know a lot of people I hung with back in the 60s & 70s who would have loved her. Blues Rock lives on into the future! 🎸

[@Dang...]

Ally's carrying the torch. Good on you Ally!

[@thelastrebelshow1627]

🥱

[@fredvanderlinden8908]

Looking forward to see her live over here in Europe. Award winning musician at the age of 16 or 17, 4 albums out at the age of 22. This lady's got it all. Good luck Ally.

[@zalfunk]

Seems effortless. Stripped back sparse blues. Great guitar sound and singing too. Lovely!

She rocks rock on Girl

[@freedomspyder]

Excellent filming Natasha. Ally has that SRV vibe in spades.

[@donniefisk2252]

You don't know much about SRV then. Nothing even remotely close to an SRV vibe. She has her own awesome vibe . Not comparable to SRV.

[@rossvaneldik3562]

@@donniefisk2252 Mainstream people hear blues and can only reference SRV because he's the only blues artist that they know anything about. They're, sadly, musically illiterate.

[@rossvaneldik3562]

@Topjunkie No, Marcus King doesn't play 'like' SRV at all, really. Personally, I don't think he sings like Joplin, either. Marcus is a phenomenal singer and guitar player, in his own right. Marcus plays, sings, and sounds like Marcus King. It's fine if you want to suggest other blues or rock n' roll artists to listen to, but the comparisons are unwarranted and unnecessary, especially the SRV ones.

[@rossvaneldik3562]

@Topjunkie If you're proposing that we should make better suggestions of SRV influenced players, my input would be Phillip Sayce.

[@rossvaneldik3562]

@Topjunkie Sooo....You're here to police others about not policing others?? Right...got it. (Roll my eyes) It's not my opinion that Marcus King doesn't sound much like SRV. It IS a fact. At least with my suggestion of Phillip Sayce, the influence is recognizable. If your ears hear SRV in Marcus King's playing, you should either get your ears checked or blues/rock music all sounds relatively the same to you. I'd say that Marcus King and Warren Haynes are more alike, and I'd be right!

[@South3West77]

This young lady and the late Rory Gallagher blues guitarist would have been a good colab together. Good work here.

[@daveb40361]

That young women has it all. An awesome voice, a hell of a good blues guitar player, and drop-dead gorgeous looks. She could well be the next Bonnie Raitt, or even better.

[@KurtClark]

That'll flat get it! Put the distortion on a Texas shuffle and make us all move. Great music!

[@democratpatriot6752]

Ally can feel the blues, and she channels it through her instruments: her voice and her guitar.

[@rebeldedelsur8830]

Wow! You made that Gibson cry like a baby. Rock on !

[@davidgarcia8343]

That Fender amp would sound awesome set on a loud clean sound on that Blues Tune. nice licks.

[@johnrectangle6034]

Maybe a loud clean sound would be more conventional. A distorded P 90 is more associated with punk( Johnny Thunders) or Heavy Blues ( Leslie West). But sometimes it's refreshing to break the rules

[@DBMorris]

Its sounds pretty good just like it is. Everybody tries to get that big clean tone. Its gets quite boring really. I like her tone it fits her voices personality, and it sits well in the mix.

[@pedromusic4209]

That sounds delicious 😋 Her tone is awesome 👌
