  Future of Blues
  The future of the blues is not so much in "Keeping the Flame Alive" as it is to be original, innovative and not try and sound like someone...it is a combination of traditional blues "structure" but to make your own leap from it.
  I think The Red Hot Blues Sisters have done that ! - laolga from New Orleans/Memphis, Louisiana on 4Jun2005
  
  WA State Blues Society
  sooooo excellent I couldn’t help thinking that this band could win the BB next year for Best New or Reformed Band, and Suze Sims was truly the Best Female Vocalist I have heard this year. Suze’s vocals are remarkable, pulled out from a hundred years of blues she’s got bottled up inside. -Rev. Deborah Engelhart from WA State Blues Society Bluesletter, September 2005
