Barbara LeShoure, a powerful blues singer who has relocated from Chicago to the Twin Cities, played Friday night at Famous Dave's with the Tom Hunter band. If you haven't seen her yet, do it, she sings powerful post war Chicago Blues as well as any female blues performer out there today! You might want to check this blues lady out! "Ray M. Stiles"
Barbara LeShoure concert, ARNELLIA’S, St. Paul
"Girlfriend, I've been mistreated" sings organ-piped Barbara LeShoure. "I think you know what I'm talking about." She gets an empathetic "yeah" from the intimate room, which is dimly lighted save for the open soul-food kitchen in the corner, Then she waves her All-Star Blues Band to an abrupt stop and repeats the phrase, "He had the nerve" before gesturing for a musical yeah! from the guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards. Blam! "He had the neeeeerve" Blam! Then she waits. "Sucker" she smiles. And she brings it home with a growl: "He had the nerve to put me off." Outside the club, a purring cop car has the nerve to park plumb in the middle of the sidewalk where patrons exit. "SCHOLTES, City Pages"
Vocalist Barbara LeShoure, her ability to belt out the blues has made her a favorite with Monaco and Rose. They invited her to appear with globe-trotting guitar hero Joe Jammer at a SOPRO show at the China Club this past summer and she proved a big hit with the audience. by: Terry Flamm
