“Local Blues God. His likeness is emblazoned on the pages of Alabama rock history. Tony Brook’s lyricism is only matched by his guitar. His songs are solid messages of truth and wisdom. His sweet-tea southern drawl tells it like it is, - Jonas Shultz, Freak Jams, The Good Doctor

Once in a blue moon – if you’re lucky – you might come across an exceptional talent who’s previously slipped under your radar. Someone who writes songs that sweep right into your soul and who sings them straight from the heart with a voice of pure honey. The moon must have been the brightest of blues the night I first heard Yve Mary B perform and in my forty years as a professional musician I’ve rarely had such a strong urge to be on the stage accompanying someone.
Yve Mary B. Once in a blue moon – if you’re lucky – you might come across an exceptional talent who’s previously slipped under your radar. Someone who writes songs that sweep right into your soul and who sings them straight from the heart with a voice of pure honey. The moon must have been the brightest of blues the night I first heard Yve Mary B perform and in my forty years as a professional musician I’ve rarely had such a strong urge to be on the stage accompanying someone.
“Right from jump, Yve Mary B’s rendition of Roy Orbison’s classic “Crying” had us sitting up and taking notice of her pure unfiltered singing ability. her hushed version of the song—its sparse arrangement and the singer’s ability to meet the demands of its high notes—allows the meaning to truly hit home. “don’t be afraid” shifts to a much higher energy and a full arrangement that includes backup singers and a nice guitar solo in a song whose inspirational and optimistic message would be right at home in the church/praise-music genre. Yve Mary B shows her country-pop chops on ‘high on a mountain’ with a big, twangy production. this u.k.-based singer-songwriter is a multi-dimensional talent.
