Product Details

Dave Alvin made his name as a founding member of The Blasters, one of the great American roots rock bands to emerge from the early 1980s Los Angeles scene, before going on to a celebrated solo career steeped in blues, country, and working-class storytelling. Assembling this particular lineup was no accident; Cashdollar, Gerber, Lewis, and the rest each carry serious Americana credibility in their own right, making this a genuine collaboration rather than a backing band situation.


Grammy winning guitarist, Dave Alvin, put together a band of female musicians and dubbed them the Guilty Women. The Guilty Women include guitar virtusoss Cindy Cashdollar and Nina Gerber, vocalist Christy McWilson, violinists Laurie Lewis and Amy Farris, bassist Sarah Brown and drummer Lisa Pankratz. The group recorded the self-titled album in Austin Texas and it features new songs by various members of the bands as well as cover songs, which include Doris Days "Que Sera Sera".
