About

Sounds Like: Lucinda Williams, Ray Bonneville

Label: AquaFria Records

Bio: Ann Armstrong is right up there with the great musical exports of Texas! She plays guitar sometimes sweetly, sometimes prickly as an Ocotillo cactus, sings like a steam-powered nightingale and writes songs from a depth of experience.

“-“Ann Armstrong writes intriguing songs, plays a mean guitar, and delivers blues and folk in a voice that sounds like it’s flown to Hell and back on its own wings.” ”

— Buddy Magazine

“Compares Ann Armstrong to “both Mary Chapin Carpenter and k d lang in the sensual swelling power of her singing – but with a wicked blues twist, bottleneck belters alternating with yearning love songs, rawness and delicacy memorably counter-poised.””

— The Scotsman of Glasgow

““Ann Armstrong’s music runs the gamut from love songs to deep blues. If you’re looking for a peg on which to hang the music of Ann Armstrong and her band, here’s a clue – you’ll need more than one””

— San Antonio Express-News

““Armstrong, the premier vocalist of Texas.” ”

— Phoenix, AZ, New Times

““Beyond the blues.” “On stage, Dallas’ Ann Armstrong is forceful when she pulls out her acoustic bottleneck slide guitar to play the blues. Ms. Armstrong’s furious, down-and-dirty rendition of Robert Johnson’s ‘Come Into My Kitchen’ – the highlight of her live set – is downright flammable. Ms Armstrong also shares some genuinely catchy pop hooks on original songs such as ‘Stars Go Out” and “Think About the Rain” Why, at times backed by a ticklish flute and her own stellar acoustic guitar, dangerous Ann Armstrong comes across as sweet as sugar. Ms. Armstrong’s live sets are so substantial – extra grit, extra grease, extra sassy slide guitar.””

— Dallas Morning News

““Armstrong’s lilting, heartfelt voice gives life to warm and gracious tunes. This is unaffected, beautiful Texas music.” “This is acoustic music with rhythm, steeped in light-hearted moodiness and Texas highway angst. Their gifted songwriting has created original tunes so simple and solid that they sound like standards.””

— Players Magazine

““Ann Armstrong exhibits her powerful voice and unfailing grasp of basic blues sensibilities in fine form.” “Armstrong’s practiced ease on guitar disguises impeccable technique and her original songs – are sturdy vehicles for her emotionally charged vocal stylings.””

— Pulse Magazine

““Ann Armstrong exhibits her powerful voice and unfailing grasp of basic blues sensibilities.””

— Blue Suede News

““Ann Armstrong the powerful blues shouter-cum-folkie from Texas.””

— Dirty Linen

““Armstrong’s blazing blues guitar and sensitive ballardry make for real Texas folk blues.””

— Ft. Worth Star Telegram

““Ann Armstrong’s talents, both as a songwriter and blues performer, are deep and diverse. Armstrong’s music, whether recorded or live, is solid, sincere and roots-conscious. Her constant companion and musical partner Steve Hughes spices up the proceedings with fine harmonica and flute work. If you haven’t caught her act (check-out her blazing bottle-neck guitar work), you’re way behind the times in keeping up with the Texas blues scene.”

— Austin American Statesman
