Ana Popovich & Coco Montoya

Ana Popovic is an award-winning, hard-touring, guitar slinger that blends smoking electric funk and slide guitar, jazzy instrumentals and a tight blues groove with soulful, feminine vocals. Add to the mix her incredible stage presence, all of which makes her an irresistible force in the world of contemporary blues music. Her sound simply never stands still, she’s pushing limits, bending genres, and reinventing her music and herself with each new record. Called “one helluva guitar-player,” by Bruce Springsteen and nominated for seven Blues Music Awards, Popovich was added as the only female guitar-player to the 2014 -’18 all-star Experience Hendrix lineup; a nationwide tour celebrating the music and legacy of Jimi Hendrix.

Between his white-hot guitar playing and his soulful, emotional vocals, Coco Montoya has talent to burn. In a career that spans almost four decades, he’s gone from drumming for blues icon Albert Collins, to holding the lead guitar spot in John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, to leading his own band and touring worldwide. Montoya is revered for his ability to move from subtly melodic guitar playing to slash-and-burn pyrotechnics. Equally forceful are his deep, soul-baring vocals. Now, with the dynamic “Writing On The Wall” and a tour calendar busting at the seams, Montoya is as excited as he’s ever been to perform the new songs live with his burning-hot band. Montoya’s well-earned reputation as an eye-popping live performer precedes him.
