Erin Harpe & the Delta Swingers in the Weekly Dig!
“Fans of sexy disco will immediately recognize Erin Harpe as the boot-stompin' frontlady for the pumpin' JP electro group Lovewhip... so it might come as a bit of a shock to learn this Disco Terror not only has a Chesapeake Bay blues background, but is also revered as an accomplished contemporary blues guitarist. We're talking about the good kind of shock, though—like finding out your chair vibrates. This blues chanteuse breathes new, whiskey-soaked life into the likes of Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe, with a sound that's uniquely Charles River Delta.”
