The Story

Armed with her electric guitar and unique cigarbox instruments, internationally acclaimed blueswoman Fiona Boyes presents songs and stories from her latest #1 Australian Blues Radio charting album ‘Voodoo in the Shadows’.

USA reviews have credited Fiona Boyes as ‘Bonnie Raitt’s evil twin’! She is a distinctive blues guitarist, vocalist and songwriter – and is the only Australian roots artist ever to be recognised in the American Blues Foundation (Memphis) ‘Blues Music Awards’, with 8 nominations, including 2019 ‘Traditional Female Artist of the Year’. Fiona’s music draws on a myriad of traditional styles, taking her audience on a ‘virtual Blues road trip’.

“…one of the world’s best fingerpicking blues guitarists…her versatility means she’s impossible to categorise: she’ll jump form Louisiana swamp blues to driving Chicago sounds, rollicking New Orleans barrelhouse to wailing laments, and back again in a 30-minute set.” – The Guardian, Australia
