Playing a mixture of rock, blues, pop, and everything in between, Staci's Edge delivers original songs with catchy melodies and hard driving guitar riffs. Front woman Staci Butler writes the music that is inspired by her life experiences and reaches out to the audience with content everyone can relate to. The band formed in 2008 and the members of Staci’s Edge established two common goals: creating great music and having fun. The band also enjoys throwing in a few great cover songs that are injected with the band’s own special flavor. Staci’s Edge is influenced by Jimi Hendrix, Bonnie Raitt, The Beatles, Susan Tedeschi, and Norah Jones.
“If you like Texas Blues Rock music, you are gonna like Staci's Edge. She can play a guitar that will make you weep. There are not many women in the world that can play blues guitar like Staci Butler. The band is from Houston and they play at all the hot spots in Texas. The songs on this CD were all written by Staci and they tell the tales of love lost to a story of triumph over cancer. Staci is a strong woman with emotions displayed through her inspiring guitar and voice. Take a listen to the clips. I think you will agree that she has it all.”

"She’s Pat Benatar and Shania Twain all mixed into one hot smoking player."

"The rock-fueled quartet veers from polished melodies to jagged, bluesy licks on debut I’ve Got It All (issued digitally in January). Butler’s vocal influences — Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Norah Jones — are apparent throughout the 11 originals. The title track is a simmering tribute to life’s rewards. Got Love has a swelling, gospel quality. For the First Time coasts on a hopeful piano arrangement. It’s an ambitious mix, held together by the band’s tight chemistry."
Joey Guerra - Houston Chronicle
"These relative newcomers formed in 2008, but their sultry take on driving blues and gritty rock earned the band instant cred. Staci’s Edge excels at the kind of mid-tempo rumblers you’d expect to find stomped out by the house band at a border-town honky-tonk, filled with all the emotional and visceral punch of a life lived hard, and chronicled 12 bars at a time. Front-woman Staci Butler carries a torch-worthy set of pipes, and matches them with a deft hand on six strings."
Nicholas L. Hall - Houston Press
"Staci is the ghost of Stevie Ray Vaughn! Staci Butler will tell you she's not a singer because her heart belongs to the guitar. But what she really is is a truly talented, well-rounded artist who writes, sings, and plays guitar so well that it gives all the axe bearing boys a run for their money! She is the reincarnate of Stevie Ray and Jimi, so honest and soulful. If you don't download this album you will be haunted by the ghost of regret!"
