Swamp Mama Johnson - Fresh, Raw & Live! (1999)

The Olympian dubbed them "The Femme Fatales of Funk," and the name is definitely lived up to by this live release by Swamp Mama Johnson, the all-female quintet from Seattle, Washington. Mastering the funky blues crossover genre, this band is as tight as can be, having toured the Northwest and Canada non-stop for almost a decade. These women have rocked the house from Anchorage to Los Angeles, from Saskatchewan to Memphis, playing clubs and festivals to crowds of thousands, and their combined releases have sold over 40,000 copies to fans all across the globe.
