On her 4th Earwig CD, Liz Mandeville (formerly Mandeville Greeson) bares her soul with an inimitable range of self-penned blues, soul ballads and sassy swing tunes, accompanied by stellar Chicago session musicians and her touring band. Special guest -tenor sax legend Eddie Shaw blows on 2 tracks, blasting a rocker and a ballad as only he can, and Liz steps out on lead and rhythm guitar on "Scratch the Kitty", another fine example of her double-entendre witty lyricism. Liz paid her musical dues as a road warrior across the USA and Canada over the past two decades with her crack R&B band, and expanded her popularity to the Benelux countries of Europe and on the North American festival circuits. She is active on the Chicago scene as a solo artist and with her band.
