Grace Askew is a sixth-generation Memphian and a highway child. Growing up to the humming lullaby of the nearby interstate, she fell asleep to dreams of all the places she too would travel to one day. With a Faulknerian Southern-Gothic storytelling style, her lyrics weave vivid imagery of a life lived with authenticity and grit, always paying homage to her Delta roots. Her rough-around-the edges, and righteously primal sounds of slide resonator guitar, bellows, stomps, claps and hollers will leave you baptized by the Blues and grounded in the truths of an old-soul. There is a delivery and phrasing that is all her own with every performance and, no doubt, Grace Askew's unique, sultry, powerhouse of a voice will help her writing stand the test of time.
