Over the past seven years, Debbie Seitz has played and recorded with the Chicago Blues Posse, SoPro's 21st Annual Thanksgiving Chicago All Star Blues Revue 2003, The Ol' Dogs Blues Band, T-Bird Huck, Ms. D. Meaner and the Felons as well as a who's who of local acts that stoke the blues fires in Illiana. I like to think that small, local Chicago-area blues clubs are truly some of America's best blues incubators in the shadow of the City of Big Shoulders. While many, many cities across America have thriving local blues scenes, I'm partial to the greater Chicagoland area. I grew up near Chicago Heights on Chicago's far south side, and some of my earliest memories of music include the songs of Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf, and Koko Taylor - a true constellation of artists who defined Chicago blues for many generations. Last year, Deb was a finalist in the Best Unsigned Vocalist Contest held at Chicago's House of Blues, judged by Alligator Records President Bruce Iglauer and WCKG-FM's Kevin Matthews. I've heard that Queen Bee herself, Koko Taylor, was in the House, too. In 2001, Deb took home the hardware as the winner of a Janis Joplin sound-alike contest hosted by local bluesman and WCKG-FM personality Buzz Kilman at Dick's Last Resort at Chicago's North Pier Mall.
When it comes to Debbie's music, I'm more a fan than a critic of this award-winning Chicago-area singer who's working hard to be true to the blues.
