SCFB 163: Vanessa Collier "Heart on the Line"

Music Star on the Rise alert.  I have Vanessa Collier on the phone with me today on Something came from Baltimore.  Vanessa is my first artist that I interviewed for the podcast twice.  The first time, was back in June 25, 2019 the episode was called, Vanessa Collier is gonna back you cry.   The interview was more of a fandom expression, Vanessa’s latest album, “Honey Up” was released in 2018, so I just wanted to chat with her about her young career.  In the Baltimore area, Vanessa OWNS the blues scene as her blankets the tristate with live shows, and they sell out.

Vanessa is always picking up awards, two years in a row 2019 and 2020 she won the Best Instrumental Horn award.

And today, I got stuff to chat about, Vanessa Collier just released a follow up to “Honey Up” and it is called, “Heart on the Line” released on August 21,2020.  This collection is mint R&B soul with some good blues.  Vanessa plays the sax put on this recording, she focuses on my the vocals, and the tunes are catchy and solid.
