Rory Block is the most celebrated living female acoustic blues artist. A Woman's Soul: A Tribute to Bessie Smith kicks off Power Women of the Blues, Rory Block's latest series of recordings dedicated to blues pioneers, following her previous Mentor Series. Bessie Smith was rightly called "The Empress of the Blues" for her 160 classic recordings between 1923 and 1933. Rory's unique acoustic blues interpretations of Bessie Smith's material remind us how powerful the songs are and how talented Rory is. Rory Block actively tours internationally. Each new release is a high profile occasion in the blues community. She is nominated for two 2018 Blues Music Awards.
