“Ana Popovic Melds Rock, Blues, and Jazz for Fiery Power” – No Depression
“Ana Popović, the stunning blues guitarist from Serbia … has been unleashing her stinging brand of blues guitar for nearly 20 years” – Atlanta Journal Constitution
“In the 25 years since the release of her debut record, Hometown, tail-gunning blues virtuoso Ana Popovic has proved herself a force of nature with a vintage Stratin hand. Like clockwork, the Serbian-born spitfire has unleashed record after record of powerful yet soulful modern blues, stunning critics and fans. Indeed, Popovic’s licks are blessed with bite, able to crush curious onlookers in one fell swoop.” – Guitar World
“Ana Popovic Displays Blistering Shredding On Versatile Power… Power just exemplifies what she’s done throughout her career – searing blues rock, a bit of gospel and R&B, and some jazzy licks to boot. Her guitar skills are second to none, her voice has grown more soulful through the years…” – Glide Magazine
Fantastafunk (11 on stage):
Fantastafunk is Ana Popovic’s new exciting powerhouse of funk, blues, rock & soul, gospel, and R&B big band. It merges styles and is a fusion of Stax / Motown with contemporary guitar-driven grooves. Ana presents some of her songs in a new way, along with new songs created for this project, all mixed with great funk, soul, gospel, and blues sounds and standards that people will love to hear again. The show is presented with 11 musicians on stage: Ana Popovic on guitar and vocals, three vocalists, keys, bass, two drummers, and three horns. Like all of Ana’s shows, it will be a show to remember.
THE STACY JONES BAND,
The Stacy Jones Band, a Northwest group, is composed of multi-award winners Stacy Jones (vocals, harmonica, guitar, and keys), her father Tom Jones on bass, Rick J. Bowen on drums, and Eric Rice on guitar—the group homes in on classic Blues honesty with Rock power and Americana flair.
The Washington Independent Music Awards awarded the band the 2024 "Best Blues Band" award and has received numerous "Best of the Blues" Awards from the Washington Blues Society.
Hot on the heels of the groups ninth album "Family Christmas," that garnered them international airplay and the #1 slot on the December 2024 Roots Music report charts, Stacy and the Band are continuing the 23 year journey that has seen them share stages with legends ZZ Top, Lee Oskar, Charlie Musslewhite, Elvin Bishop, Coco Montoya, Samantha Fish, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds in clubs, theaters, festivals and concert venues, delivering timeless classics, reimaged with high energy and popular selections from their extensive catalog of roots, rock, blues, country and soul.
