Mahalia Barnes Streaming New Album With Joe Bonamassa
. (The Blues) Mahalia Barnes has streamed her album Ooh Yea: The Betty Davis Songbook (featuring Joe Bonamassa) exclusively with The Blues Magazine ahead of its official release. The daughter of iconic singer Jimmy Barnes teamed up with Joe Bonamassa and producer Kevin Shirley for the 12-track title, which is launched via Mascot Label Group on February 23. Mahalia says: "I've been a fan of Betty for years - she's wild, free, nasty, raw, funky, intense, powerful and sexy. I love the instrumentation, I love the backing vocals. I've always wanted to make a record that sounds like what she was doing. Making this album was a real joy." Ooh Yea features Mahalia's band the Soul Mates working through tracks from Davis' self-titled 1973 album, 1974's They Say I'm Different and 1975's Nasty Gal. Check out the stream here.
