Fiona, with Mal Barclay and Big Mama’s Door were the first band to bring female fronted authentic rhythm n blues vibes back to the UK Blues scene 18 years ago. Today, Fiona with the incredibly talented band of guitarist Andy Knight bassist Franca Shaw saxophonist Martin Dewhirst pianist Stephen Walsh and drummer Brad Shaw serve up a truly exceptional blend of RnB fused with a little jazz and a whole lot of soul.
Hugely entertaining and engaging Big Mama’s Door play their own distinctive brand of sexy 50’s RnB, an eclectic mix of originals and covers.
Fiona, described as ‘authentic and charismatic’ ‘Etta James with a pinch of Patsy Cline’ is only as good as the brilliant band steeped in the knowledge and respect of the great musical recordings of Blue Note Chess and Atlantic. They play with a whole lot of joy and professionalism and love to sell out venues everywhere
‘Excellent band…Fiona’s smoky/laid-back voice does the risqué blues mixed with more soul stuff with a vengeance…..’ – Ian
