The city of Calgary, Canada, has established itself as one of the epicenters of blues in the country. It has produced fundamental artists of the scene such as James "Buddy" Rogers, the Gunn Blues Band, Brett Spalding, and Debra Power who has just released her new album, Unapologetically Me. Known as Calgary's piano virtuoso, Debra Power presents her fourth album, successor to the celebrated I'm Not From Chicago (2022), a work that earned her numerous nominations at the Maple Blues Awards and the International Blues Challenge in Memphis.
Power's music has deep roots in tradition: her father led a big band, and that legacy is clearly perceived in her sound, which naturally moves through blues, boogie woogie, barrelhouse and some nods to dixieland, elements that clearly emerge in this new album. Since her 2016 debut, Even Redheads Get the Blues, her powerful voice and expressive piano playing have been hallmarks of her style.
On Unapologetically Me, we find a more mature artist, deeply connected to the lyrics of the album's ten songs, supported by arrangements that respect the musical tradition upon which she has built her career. This, her fourth album, presents an honest Debra Power with identity and skill, settled in a moment of creative maturity that invites us to closely follow what is to come in her career. /Historias Del Blues
