MANZANITA – “She’s dangerous!” is what Bo Diddley said about Duffy Bishop when she shared the stage at his 75th birthday concert at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland.
Bishop will perform at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 10, at Vino Manzanita, with her longtime collaborator, guitarist and husband Chris Carlson, and Dean Mueller on bass.
Bishop is a multiple award winner in both the Washington Blues Society (best female vocalist, best band, best album and Hall of Fame) and the Cascade Blues Society where she is in the Hall of Fame and receiver of the Lifetime Achievement Award. She won the Female Vocalist Award so many years in a row they went ahead and renamed it the Duffy Bishop Female Vocalist Award.
Bishop continues to be a favorite wherever she performs. Whether it is an intimate club, theater or festival setting, Bishop connects and delivers with her personal warmth, humor and booming emotional voice. The trio will be delivering Bishop’s classic blues style in the most intimate of settings at Vino Manzanita, 387 Laneda Ave. There is no cover charge and the venue is for ages 21 and older.
