Vanessa Collier-Fifteen Time Blues Music Award Nominee & Five Time Winner

🔥🎷 Vanessa Collier: Doing It Her Own Way 🎷🔥

Soul. Sass. Saxophone. 💃🎶
Blues powerhouse Vanessa Collier is back with her sixth album, Do It My Own Way, and she is not asking for permission.

Recorded old-school on analog gear with the band in one room, this album channels the deep-groove Memphis soul of Stax & Hi Records—think Staples Singers vibes, bold horns, and grooves so good Willie Mitchell would approve. 🙌🎺

✨ Standout tracks include:
🔥 “Elbow Grease” – a funky opener that hits hard
🌧️ “Wild As a Rainstorm” – a soul-deep anthem encouraging women and outsiders to ignore the noise and be a tapestry of dreams (now on Spotify’s Retro Soul playlist!)
🎸 “Rosetta” – a gospel-tinged tribute to trailblazer Sister Rosetta Tharpe
💪 “Warrior” – a powerful closer honoring strong women everywhere

🎙️ Vanessa writes, produces, arranges, and plays everything—guitars, saxophones, flute, and vocals—proving once again she’s a true force of nature. She’s joined by legendary Hi Records organist Rev. Charles Hodges and an all-star band of collaborators.

🏆 A 15-time Blues Music Award nominee and 5-time winner, Collier has shared stages with legends, made her Chicago Blues Festival debut before tens of thousands, and continues to redefine modern soul-blues with fearless originality.

💥 As Blues Blast Magazine puts it:
“Vanessa Collier is an important part of the future of the blues.”

Come hear the groove, feel the power, and watch an artist who does it boldly, brilliantly, and her own way. 🎶🔥
