Del Rey in Saratoga NY, Saturday Apr 12
No affiliation, I just love what she does and how she does it... Amazing picker with a wicked sense of humor. -Dave
Caffe Lena, 8pm April 12 From www.caffelena.com: http://delreyplays.com/ Del Rey is a living testament to the hillbilly/smarty-pants/country blues aesthetic. With a sense of humor and a manic intensity, she's smart, funny and full of instrumental virtuosity. Raised on the music of Sam Chatmon, Lydia Mendoza and Memphis Minnie, Del Rey's guitar playing reflects country blues, stride piano, classic jazz and hillbilly boogie-all filtered through the sensibility of an autodidact trailor-park aesthete. Now hailed as “one of the greatest modern players of the metal-bodied resonator guitar,” (Acoustic Guitar Magazine), she is also taking the humble ukulele to a new level of musicianship, picking out the same complicated rhythmic blues and ragtime on four strings as she does on six.
