Spring is finally here, and, though I was so busy I missed sending you a newsletter last month, I'm happy to report that last month's UK tour went great, and we've got plenty of news to share! Our second UK tour (my acoustic duo with Jim Countryman on U-bass) was a whirlwind of well-attended and sold-out shows, with a couple guitar workshops thrown in, an overnight ferry (or two), snow in Scotland, and lots of fun adventures, travelling to new places meeting new friends. I made a really fun photo and video album of the tour

Happy February darlin’!

2019 is off to a great start, I just returned from the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, where I made it to the semi-finals, saw many old (and new) friends, and made some great contacts. It was also a lot of fun. Big thanks going out to the Boston Blues Society, fellow semi-finalists Soul Box and the rest of the Boston crew who came down, and all you watching from home! Love you all!! One of the most special parts of being in Memphis for me this year was getting to play the Women in Blues Showcase 2019.

We are very excited to announce that we made DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE's 2018 Yuletide Music Roundup with our very first holiday release!!! How cool is that?!? (I have always wanted to be on a list that included the great Diana Ross!!) “Singer and guitarist Erin Harpe spans the gap between historic blues and rockabilly, satisfying a roots music fan’s thirst

The first, glowing review has come in of our new holiday album "The Christmas Swing", from our friend Aj Wachtel! Thanks for the nice words Aj! Check it out:

"This music is for the listener who would rather celebrate the holidays with their friends and family drinking at the bar with a live band instead of enjoying the yuletide with the solitude and warmth of their own cozily lit living room fireplace; contemplating good times past.

Today is the world premier of our new music video “JINGLE BELL BLUES” – the first single from our new album “The Christmas Swing”! I'm very excited to share this audio/visual creation with you! We filmed and edited the whole thing ourselves, and I think it came out really great! Take a snowy trip with Erin Harpe & the Delta Swingers on a one-horse open sleigh complete with slide guitar, harmonica, bass, drums, and plenty of fishnets! CLICK HERE TO WATCH IT NOW!
