Wildsang- named finalist in the Independent Music Awards - Best Blues song - 2005. *Pasatiempo's - Best New Mexico Album - 2003. Wildsang makes a ton of sound for two people. They are a trip back in time from 2005 to the early years of blues. Great harp. Fine slide guitar. Scorching vocals. Real emotion. This is the Real Deal. It is also an answer to the old time male blues singers. It is feminist blues. Bessie Smith and Big Mama Thornton would be proud.brbrHillary Kay (vocals, guitar) and Kate Freeman (harmonica) hail from California, but their music is rooted deep in the sounds of the Mississippi Delta and the Piedmont Plateau, helping to keep the tradition alive. You can almost hear these two souls hanging in the balance on every note. Wildsang's new CD: Sky Dirt Speak Out Truth grabs hold from the first guitar strum and harmonica wail with a gripping, energetic sound as full as an entire band. Wildsang speaks the truth of the Blues from the core of the cellular memory of the American Experience. You can buy Wildsang CD's on the web at Wildsang.com, but whatever you do... Don't miss a live show. Wildsang delivers songs chock full of almost all the sweat, grit, tragedy, bare truth, desperation, deep love and sacrifice that you can squeeze out of the blues.
