Expectations are there to be defied. Glass ceilings are there to be shattered.Having spent the past decade carving out her own unique space in the male dominated world of blues-rock, Ally Venable’s combative sixth album, Money & Power, demands more of both – for herself, for women around the world, and for anyone else who thought they weren’t worthy of a seat at the table.Money and power make the world go round. But in the right hands, music can be every bit as potent. Right now, on the heels of 2023’s acclaimed Real Gone – an album that hit #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts and was still in contention a year later – Ally is rated amongst the best young singer-songwriters in American roots, saluted by Total Guitar Magazine in its poll of Top 100 Blues Guitarists. www.allyvenableband.comOur Sponsors:Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza & the Case of the Missing Hat:www.dolphinhat.com/product/taco-cat-goat-cheese-pizza-graphic-novelLucid House Press: www.lucidhousepublishing.comWhispers of the Flight: www.amazon.com/Whispers-Flight-Voyage-Cosmic-Unity-ebook/dp/B0DB3TLY43The Crown: www.thecrownbrasstown.comBright Hill Press: www.brighthillpress.orgWe Deeply Appreciate:UCLA Extension Writing Program: www.uclaextension.eduMercer University Press: www.mupress.orgThe Red Phone Booth: www.redphonebooth.comNPR: https: www.npr.orgWUTC: www.wutc.orgAlain Johannes for the original score in this show: www.alainjohannes.com_______________________________________________Dante's Old South is produced by Michael AmideiThe host, Clifford Brooks’, The Draw of Broken Eyes & Whirling Metaphysics, Athena Departs, and Old Gods are available everywhere books are sold.
