Del Rey

Nice article about local musician Del Rey. She plays blues and ragtime on the guitar and ukulele. She's a great player who was inspired by Sam Chatmon, who it turns out was Bo Carter's brother. Bo Carter (a stage name) was famous for his raunchy songs. Del Rey publishes her own CDs at Hobemian Records. She'll be playing in a new ukulele duo with Mike Bristow at Victrola Coffee, March 1st at 8pm.
