Misty Blues - Between the Stacks (2012)

"Between the Stacks" is the second studio album in Misty Blues' discography, cementing the band's reputation as a distinctive act on the American independent blues scene. The record demonstrates a shift from classical canons to a freer, more experimental sound.
While classic blues remains the album's core, the tracks are heavily infused with elements of funk, jazz, soul, and roots rock.
The core of the album is frontwoman Gina Coleman's deep, contralto vocals. Critics often compare her raw, piercing, and passionate voice to those of Koko Taylor and Odetta.
The music is filled with dense guitar solos, vibrant horns (saxophone), and pumping organ keyboards, creating the atmosphere of a live performance in a smoky club.
