Anyone who has ever seen the stunning American soul and blues singer Beth Hart live on stage knows why Joe Bonamassa raves about her and plays with her on a regular basis.

Beth Hart inspires with strong songs between earthy blues, soul and rock and convinces with a voice that is second to none: Powerful, expressive and full of life. But that's not all: when she intones calmer, sometimes even jazzy songs, one is immediately reminded of Billie Holiday.

Beth Hart is a force of nature - a bang for all fans of honest blues and rock music... Yes and every now and then you think Janis Joplin has been resurrected - but more mature.
