Winner of the Chicago Blues Challenge!

Texas-bred blues vocalist and songwriter Long Tall Deb and Hawaiian Big Island slack key guitarist/singer Colin John. Best described as “genre-bending” and “refreshingly original,” the richly-textured layers of their music incorporate world influence with a soul-blues base picked up on their travels throughout India, Nepal, Hawaii and the American South. DEB is the real deal with a tremendous, powerful blues voice, and COLIN JOHN is one of the best guitarist-lap steel-“Baby Sitar” players around!

Broadway, Jazz, Pop and Blues Quartet!

In addition to songs made popular by artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Carole King, Cole Porter, and Barbra Streisand, DEBÉ is also writing and performing original music. She is currently performing with NORWIN MERGLER and DENEEN TROMBETTI – both amazingly talented musicians and entertainers.  "If you don’t know me yet, think of me as the love child of Bette Midler and Bonnie Raitt. I’m a sassy broad who belts out Broadway, jazz, pop and blues with some amazing musicians. If you have seen me perform then you know how much I love what I do. My goal is to make you love it too." - DEBÉ
