BESIDES A NEW STUDIO, NEW BAND AND NEW MINDSET, THIS YOUNG TEXAN’S LATEST ALBUM BENEFITS FROM SOME PRETTY INCREDIBLE GUEST APPEARANCES BY BUDDY GUY AND JOE BONAMASSA

- Andrew Daly

“I’VE SAID IT before, but I’m just a girl with a guitar,” says young blues-rock songstress Ally Venable. “But that doesn’t mean I haven’t grown — I have — and I think this album shows that. This is my most evolved form, doing what I love.”

Since emerging from Kilgore, Texas, at 14, Ally Venable, aka “Texas Honey,” has made a name for herself amid a swarming blues circuit. Now 10 years after the release of Venable’s debut EP, Wise Man, it’s hard to believe she’s only 23. Moreover, as she prepares to release her fifth record, Real Gone, Venable seems more like a weathered veteran than a fresh-faced kid.

HOW TO PLAY THIS MONTH'S SONGS
