Fiona Boyes

“…ONE OF THE WORLD’S BEST FINGERPICKING BLUES GUITARISTS…” —THE GUARDIAN, AUSTRALIA

Guitarist and singer-­songwriter Fiona Boyes is the only Australian ever recognised by The Blues Foundation in Memphis, earning 8 Blues Music Awards nominations. She was the first woman and non­-American to win the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. Her international following has propelled her recordings to the top of blues charts.

Blues in My Heart is a remastered 20th Anniversary edition of her debut solo album, originally released in 2000 in Australia only. It includes Fiona’s diary­ style liner notes, photo memories and original folk art in a single CD package. Fiona is joined on this album by bandmates Karen (Kaz) Dalla Rosa (harmonica); Gina Woods (piano); and Paula Dowse (drums and percussion).

Quoting Fiona, “Blues in My Heart is an acoustic album of finger­picking ragtime blues… the 16 tracks capture a unique performance moment, much like the historical recordings of the early players I so admire.”

This is Fiona’s fourth release on Reference Recordings®. Her 2018 album Voodoo in the Shadows brought her multiple awards and nominations:

  • 2019 Koko Taylor Traditional Blues Female Artist of Year
  • Music Victoria Award Nominee – Best Blues Album
  • 2019 Australian Blues Music Awards Nominations
    • Album of the Year
    • Song of the Year – “Call Their Name”
    • Artist of the Year
    • Duo/Group of the Year

And her previous Reference Recordings release, Professin’ The Blues, received the 2017 Acoustic Album of the Year award from Blues Blast Magazine and countless superb reviews.
