TONI SPEARMAN is well established in the European an American blues scene. The expressive (female) singer with the deep voice grew up in South Carolina and lives now partly near Munich (Germany). She amazes with a solid blues band in her back on both sides of the atlantic and often uses in the USA the same backing band as the “Temptations”.
TONI SPEARMAN brings blues with all sidesteps, she loves to combine it with a bit of rock and soul, fully arranged and even using a horn sections from time to time. She became famous for her own live appearances, but also worked extensively as guest artists with blues giants as Luther Allison or Louisiana Red. She has also opened big concert events with her band for B.B. King or the Blues Brothers.
Her new album – her debut with Brambus – offers a powerful and dynamic blues with a lot of soul and a bit of rock. She found an excellent mixture of self penned blues tracks and great covers, including some of her mentor B.B.King.

Toni’s latest album is a powerful and mature piece of work from this excellent American singer. She sings with a powerful enthusiasm on the storming, boogying opener and then it is into the sassy blues of ‘Kind Of Girl’. The band behind her is tight and cooking, especially guitarist Michael Vochezer, though it seems a shame to have to single anyone out as all the musicians are impressive. ‘Apple On A Tree’ is a slow blues, soulfully sung and played, with a touch of vintage Peter Green in the guitar work. Toni then changes tack with ‘Who’s That Girl’, a pop-flavoured quasi modern track that would do well with some radio play, then ‘Toni’s Groove’ opens with some Muddy Waters styled slide guitar before heading off into a jaunty, Willie Dixon inflected blues dancer.
This blues-based eclecticism continues throughout the remaining four meaty hard blues tracks and a closer which is good fun if a bit of a surprise!) of this excellent album – in my opinion this is her best yet! ~Norman Darwen
