![]() |
Del Rey started playing classical guitar when she was four. As a teenager, she met bluesman Sam Chatmon who inspired her to become a blues queen. Her guitar playing combines country blues, stride piano, classic jazz and hillbilly boogie through the sensibility of an autodidact trailor-park esthete. Her live show is full of complex guitar grooves and sly humor. Del Rey plays concerts world wide and also presents a concert/lecture on women musicians called Women in American Music. She collaborates frequently with guitarist Steve James and she plays ukulele with The Yes Yes Boys. She writes about music for various publications, including Acoustic Guitar. Del Rey has recorded three solo albums, X-Rey Guitar (Hobemian 2000), Hot Sauce (Hobemian 1995) and Boogie Mysterioso (Hobemian 1993). | |||||||||||||
