The project THE BLUES QUEEN is dedicated to evoking stories born on the Mississippi delta through raw sounds in the blues style. Two musicians with international experience, Mario Federico and Alessandra Bene, guitar and voice of the blues band Downtown Gang, together give life to an acoustic project focused on original songs and reinterpretations of the classics of the blues. To complete the trio, the bassist Marco Cattolico, rock musician with extensive experience in the field of ethnic-popular music. Acoustic and resophonic instruments, slides, self-made instruments like washboard and stomp box, are the essence of the band's sound that always manages to indelibly mark its performances. The powerful voice of Alessandra always warm becomes unmistakable with her "black" tone that unmistakably claims her crown. In March 2014 the first album "The Blues Queen" was recorded, presented in 2015 and distributed on the most important international musical stores. The band in 2016 enriches the artistic proposal by adding the electric set with the battery as an alternative proposal to the classic acoustic set, achieving considerable success. In 2018 the new album "Lady in Blues" was produced with the label "The people of the blues". (Translated from Italian.)
