Playing the blues is not just playing music. It is a feeling from deep within your soul capturing the moments in life that make you or break you and telling a story people can relate to. Sharing your emotions with complete strangers and knowing they relate.....they've been there too....That is what we do. That is who we are.
Judy Mangini "Powerhouse vocals!!" "What Chops!!" "What Pipes!!" "WOW" are some of the descriptions people have used after hearing her sing! Judy is the lead vocalist and percussionist of Judy Sings the Blues and with her tremendously powerful and wide range vocals, she will draw you in from the time she hits the stage.
