Sporting a slam-bang rock ‘n’ roll band and a
hard-core honky-tonk wail, Stacie Collins pushes the boundaries of
rock, blues and country. A singer-songwriter and a bad-ass harmonica
player in the style of Chicago Blues greats Little Walter and James
Cotton, Collins has garnered a reputation for her high energy shows,
diverse songwriting and unlike most chick-singers, they are not all
about love and heartbreak.
Based in Nashville, TN, Stacie is a road warrior having performed
countless shows in the USA and Europe over the past few years and has
even spawned a Japanese “Stacie Collins” tribute band. In addition to
touring, Collins, along with her writing partner, husband, band mate Al
Collins (Jason & The Scorchers) have written, recorded and released
five records on her own label.
Had her records been released twenty or thirty years ago, they would
have sounded as natural on ’70s FM radio alongside ZZ Top and The
Rolling Stones as they do next to contemporary rockers like the Drive-By
Truckers or Blackberry Smoke.
