  Award-winning vocalist Shemekia Copeland, currently celebrating the release of her powerful new Alligator Records album, Blame It On Eve, will headline the Houston Blues Society’s Holiday Bash at Rockefeller’s in Houston on Sunday, December 8, 2024. Copeland possesses one of the most instantly recognizable and deeply soulful roots music voices of our time. The multi-GRAMMY nominee is beloved and honored worldwide for the fearlessness, honesty and humor of her revelatory songs, as well as for her winning, engaging personality. The Chicago Tribune says, “Copeland is the greatest female blues vocalist working today. There’s no mistaking the majesty of her instrument, nor the ferocity of her delivery.”

  On Blame It On Eve, the 12 songs all hit hard, with jaw-dropping performances that instantly take hold and command repeated listening. “There’s serious business on the new album,” Copeland says, “but there are a lot of smiles here too, a lot of joyous moments. It’s my blues for sure but it’s the brighter side. Issues are always important to me, but so is rocking, dancing and just having fun. And that’s something we all can all agree on.” Upon release, Blame It On Eve debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart.
