"Emerging new talent" Blues In Britain

About Me

You probably think that the Guitar playing, Foot stomping, Hollering blues ladies only exist in black and white, but there is one left! Naomi Mather is a female singer/songwriter with a difference, her love and passion for delta blues. With her individual yet true to the roots guitar style and her gritty and sometimes English vocal approach she’s what you’d expect in a blues lady! Her song writing displays sympathy to the traditional whilst is innovative and gives the time loved genre a twist of modernity and a hint of folk. Her guitar style has been described by veterans of the blues as beyond her years and her use of the guitar for its percussive qualities keeps audience’s feet tapping. Her lyrics reveal much about herself and her life and she tells these honest stories of men, friends and spirituality with rye humour making audiences smile with comprehension. For the past year Naomi has been studying at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts where she has met some very influential people, formed her own band and has developed her own musical voice. Preferring not to continue with her studies, she believes now is the time to take her music travelling and she is currently recording her debut solo album this summer. She is planning to continue to play on the blues circuit both in the UK and further a field keeping the Blues alive and growing music organically the natural way.
