The, "Original Good Time Girl" ...(Insert drum roll here)Sista Otis, released her Debut Award Winning studio Album, Worldwide Release in 2004. With air play in 12 different countries and coast to coast on college and public radio in the States, a write up in Roiling Stone, Advocate named her one of the top Indie Artist in the U.S. but the real proof is in the live performance. Sista Otis is a one woman band. A party with just a acoustic guitar, vocals and song writing with classic elements, reminiscent of the late 60's. Bringing her Singer/Songwriter Blues inspired rock-hip hop with gospel rhythms to The People. A Poet, Storyteller, Lyricist, Master Melody Maker and Improv Artist. Song structures so diverse and truly original yet so familiar and warm that you feel like you've heard them before. Strong with rhythm and addictive hooks and lyrics that hit the heart, head and stir your eternal soul. With saucy lil' numbers bout' having the bar tender pour another round to This love is spiritual. Shes sassy, charming and raw. She can easily do an adult show, kids show or a gospel show at the church on your corner. Knowing and understanding how to serve the people. She is, "The Original Good Time Girl" and the Good Time Revolution is in full effect when Otis is up in the house.
Quotes...
"She has enough girl power to fuel a fire and enough soul to make James Brown proud."
- Rachel May, Detroit Free Press
"The band's name and its Detroit Pedigree set some big expectations. Happily, Sista Otis and her Wholly Rollers manage to over deliver. Sista serves up Janis Joplin-inspired 1960s Rock mingled with flavors of funk, hip-hop, soul, and urban folk in socially conscious songs"
-Mark Davis, The Advocate
"Also hailing from the Midwest, Detroit to be exact, is Sista Otis and the Wholly Rollers. With the feverish fervor of a faith healer, Sista Otis and company rolls through a series of songs on its CD Worldwide Release (Wholly Roller) that sound as if they were baptized in hip-hop (Beat On The Road), funk (Love Is Spiritual), modern rock (Rollin Stone, Mama Look At Me), and the blues (Letter To Denine), and bring the listener to the brink of testifying."
-Gregg Shapiro, Windy City Times
"She's a very talented guitar player, song writter and she knows how to work a croud. Her stage persence is one that you cant walk away from without knowing she was there."
-Kristi Singer
The Sun News Kicks Weekly Entertainment Guide Myrtle Beach, SC
"Worldwide Release holds the potential as the record that can break open the national scene for Sista Otis and the Wholly Rollers. And it's a great album, full of the variety and depth that Otis is known for. Each song sounds fresh and different from each other, a feat not often accomplished by music groups either through fear or inexperience."
-Lucie Bourgeau, The South End
"Her spunky -- sometimes spittingly so -- new disc is the kind of blast of self-confidence that says an artist has really arrived. Sista Otis is emerging as one of Detroit's most distinctive voices."
-Steve Byrne, Detroit Free Press
"Sista Otis is one-of-kind figure in the Detroit music scene."
-Melody Baetens, Detroit News
"One listen leaves little doubt that Otis is on her way out of the shadows of the gritty, "urban folk" genre she helped create and on her way into the mainstream. But that's OK. Perhaps it's the mainstream that needs this prophetess most of all."
-Jason Michael, Between The Lines
"Sista Otis has got to be one of the best songwriters to hit Detroit in a very long time."
-Aimee Spencer, Real Detroit
"(Sista Otis) is the hardest working women in Detroit Show Business."
-Jim Dolzo, WDET.
"A maverick artist packing rooms across the Midwest, exalted by critics"
-BRIAN MCCOLLUM, Detroit Free Press
"Legendary Country crooner Johnny Cash once wrote a song about a boy named Sue. But around these parts, it's a girl named Otis that's getting all the attention. Sista Otis to be exact."
-Jason Michael, Between The Lines.
