Little
Walter meets Joan Jett and Tammy Wynette - Harmonica blowin’ hell-cat STACIE COLLINS is blazing a trail traveled by few women. Sporting a hard-core
honky-tonk wail while backed by a slam-bang rock 'n' roll band, she weds
Stones-fried rock-n-roll, raunchy blues & vintage honky-tonk. Based in
Nashville, TN, Stacie tours the US, Scandinavia and Europe regularly and has
even spawned a Japanese “Stacie Collins” tribute band.
Produced by rock legend Dan Baird (The Georgia Satellites / Homemade Sin),
Collins’ 2007 release, THE LUCKY SPOT became a fan favorite and received
airplay worldwide. A ten song, southern rockin', harp howlin' blues romp, had
this record been released twenty or thirty years ago it would have sounded as
natural on '70s FM radio alongside ZZ Top and The Rolling Stones as it does
next to contemporary rockers like the Drive-By Truckers or Blackberry Smoke.
Her latest CD, SOMETIMES YA GOTTA (second produced by Baird) was released in
November 2010 to rave reviews. Packed with 12 tracks of giddy-up rattle-n-roll,
this disk features the guitar work of Warner E. Hodges (Jason & The
Scorchers / Homemade Sin), Eric ‘EBO’ Borash (Radney Foster) and Dan Baird
along with the rhythm section of Jimmy Lester (Los Straitjackets / Webb Wilder)
on drums and Stacie's rocker husband / writing partner, Al Collins (Jason and
The Scorchers) on bass.
Classic Rock Magazine proclaims that SOMETIMES YA GOTTA is “Guaranteed to get
any party started... Imagine a late-night lock-in jam with Aerosmith, The
Stones and ZZ Top, fronted by the equivalent of Ronnie Van Zant, or maybe even
Shania Twain with balls.... It's sassy, sexy & rocks like a bitch". Photo by Jason Bechtel
Currently Stacie is gearing up for a World tour and will be filming a live DVD
to be released in the fall of 2012 on Blue Rose Records (Germany).
Armed with a new album that is sure to rate as her best work yet, a live show
that makes you say “damn girl!” and a band that makes you want to be in a band
(and if you are in a band, makes ya want to be in a better one), Stacie Collins
is sittin’ in a sling-shot and the arm is drawn back tight. This is one show
you don't want to miss.
