About Me |
|
| Over a 35-year career, Liz Lottmann’s brassy, sassy, high-energy blues and R&B performances have earned her the respect of musicians and audiences alike. She has worked her way though the blues and jazz clubs of the U.S., Europe, Japan, South and Central America and Canada. While touring with her own bands, she also frequently sang with Donn McMinn’s Memphis Blues Revue, whose players included Jeff "Stick" Davis and Billy Earheart of Amazing Rhythm Aces, and Willie Hall of The Blues Brothers. She has shared the stage and jammed with artists such as Taj Mahal, the Nighthawks, ZZ Top, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dizzy Gillespie, George Benson, and Spyro Gyra. Liz is proud to be born-and-raised in Northeast Arkansas. While still in high school there, she began composing and performing her own special brand of "barbed-wire" folk. She was a solo artist at Memphis coffeehouses and soon attracted the attention of Judd Phillips, who produced an album of her original songs at Sun Studios in midtown Memphis. When Jerry Lee Lewis heard her album, he encouraged her to reach out toward the blues. At that time, Furry Lewis, the legendary "country bluesman," was working the Memphis area, and each time they’d run into each other, Liz pestered him to show her a few licks on guitar. Furry’s brief lessons allowed her to glimpse the backbone of the blues, and she’s never lost sight of it.The music featured here is from her CDs recorded with Lectric Liz & LiveWire, and "Memphis Revisited" -- a piece of Liz's "True Memphis Sound" backed by members of the Amazing Rhythm Aces and Ben Cauley of The Bar-Kays. Liz and the guys really deliver the Memphis package--horns, the backup chorus, the funky/blues/soul/country/rock of Memphis music. | |
