Quote:Originally from Canada, Foley started playing guitar at 13 and toured with Mark Hummel and other blues artists before relocating to Austin, Texas, and releasing her debut album, Young Girl Blues, in 1992. Her latest album, the Grammy-nominated One Guitar Woman [see full review at AcousticGuitar.comed.], is a tribute to the women who shaped guitar history—and a personal reckoning with their influence. With just her voice and a Salvador Castillo flamenco negra guitar, she delivers songs by Memphis Minnie, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Maybelle Carter, and others with a mix of reverence and raw energy. Rather than simply looking back, the album sparks a conversation across generations.
