Candye Kane Tour Extended

21 new venues have been added to Kane's original schedule. She embarks this weekend on the remaining 37 cities, punctuated by appearances at prestigious blues festivals including Washington DC, Baltimore, and Hudson River Blues and BBQ fest in the Big Apple. After these US dates, Kane who tours relentlessly will be returning to Europe where she performs to sold-out audiences.

Recorded entirely in Kane’s second hometown Austin, Texas, White Trash Girl is garnering rave reviews in this month's issue of Blues Revue and Downbeat magazines. In September her image will grace the cover of Southwest Blues Magazine.

The CD is #13 on the Living Blues Chart and is nominated for Best Blues Album at the San Diego Music Awards. It has been getting extensive airplay, especially on XM radio, and will be featured on the world café on September 6th in Philadelphia. www.worldcafe.org

2005 has been a busy year for Candye starting off with a three month tour of Europe called “The Blues Caravan.” The BC tour featured Kane along with Ruf Records label mates, Ana Popovic and Sue Foley. Read Candye’s hilarious musings about the tour in Blues Survivor, a featured article in the August 4th issue of the online Ezine www.blueswax.com

Candye will also be the subject of a photo shoot with Television-star-turned-photographer Leonard Nimoy who has recently become a Candye fanatic. Check out his other work at www.Leonardnimoyphotography.com

Kane's live band includes her son, Evan on drums, Isaiah “ Honeyboy” Mitchell on guitar, Canadian Smedley B on keyboard and legendary Los Angeles bassist Gil T, formerly of Top Jimmy and the Rhythm Pigs, The Pleasure Barons and WC Clark.
