Bio / Background
When was the last time you heard a Woman Play Mean Blues Harp?
Octavia performs both Blues & Jazz!
Octavia's shows differ from most in that, she plays with the emotions a woman can bring. Octavia's style renders music rarely heard from other harp players. In one of Octavia's songs, she holds one note throughout an entire verse. The audience becomes "uneasy" waiting for her to turn blue and drop, but she just continues in with powerful textured vocals. This is a show stopper! Octavia is noted for playing two instruments besides her wide vocal stylings "Wicked" harmonica, sultry & powerful textured vocals, plus "old style" finger style guitar. Octavia's blues shows perform originals, traditional, classic blues, selected Bessie Smith, and Koko Taylor gems.
