Sue Decker and her versatile and talented band deliver a fresh blend of original roots and blues. Evocative and contemporary songwriting is infused with the echoes of early blues, country, and soul, plus the sheer joy of making music. Sue's warm voice, earthy slide guitar playing, and 'outlaw country' songwriting sensibility make for a powerful combination. In 2019, Sue released her debut full length album Outskirts of Love to international acclaim. On stage, Sue serves up tasty lap-style slide guitar and a playful connection with the audience.
"Sue Decker has one of the most remarkable voices I have heard for many a day. She has a warm voice, deep and strong, and there is a haunting quality to it that gave me chills." (Andy Snipper, Blues Matters UK).
Denny Box’s spirited drumming draws on early jazz and world percussion inspirations and always contains some improvisation, his way of keeping things fresh in the musical moment.
After many years in Vancouver, Gavin Hodgins is happy to be back in Victoria, adding vocal harmonies to the band and weaving eclectic influences into his bluesy guitar and mandolin playing.
Ellen Box approaches her bass playing with a deep passion for song structure and groove and she’s excited to create a strong and natural rhythm section for the band with her brother Denny.
