Thornetta Davis – Rubenstein Atrium – May 10, 2018
Davis is Detroit’s Queen of the Blues, and there’s no mistaking that – I told her that she must have gone to Aretha-school. Her band provides a full sound to give heft to go along with her amazing pipes. Some covers, some originals. The featured instrumental soloist was guitarist Washington, and he had all old-school and classic blues styles covered; the others copped a few dregs here & there to good effect.
