Texan guitarist and singer Ally Venable is among the new generation of blues rockers breathing new life and fresh energy into the genre. She’s been performing at major American festivals from a young age, gaining a solid live reputation with her powerful voice and flaming guitar style in the process. Her album Real Gone (2023) shot to number one in the Billboard Blues Chart, and cemented her status as one of the most noteworthy newcomers of American roots music. On her sixth album Money & Power (2025), we hear a fearless artist switching up blues rock with soul and southern rock, helped along by a few guests such as Shemekia Copeland and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram. Venable's music is firmly rooted in tradition, but has a definite modern – as well as personal – edge to it. Her energetic shows are full of endless guitar solos and heartfelt songs. Expect blues rock alive with fire, conviction and ample helpings of raw Texas power.
