Event Information:
Rory Block is a legendary blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter, known for her powerful and authentic interpretations of traditional country blues and her own original compositions. Born in Princeton, NJ, she grew up in Manhattan and was immersed in the Greenwich Village folk music scene, where she met influential figures like Bob Dylan and Maria Muldaur. At 15, she embarked on a journey to learn directly from blues legends like Skip James and Mississippi John Hurt, becoming a prominent figure in the blues world. Rory will be releasing a new record in late 2025 on the New York-based M.C. Records label. Rory talks about the upcoming record:I am very excited to announce that I will be a recording a brand new project for M.C. Records! I expect to be tapping into my lifelong love of American roots blues, celebrating the founders and best of the classic blues legends, and maybe some of my own originals. The recording will be filled with slide, overlapping acoustic parts, and funky rhythms. Cant wait to get started!!
