Sadie Blu is a shy 18 year-old girl from Milton with brazenly soulful and honest lyrics. She grew up listening to blues and rock'n'roll and names some of her influences as Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Norah Joes, Bob Dylan and Stevie Nicks. Sadie began to play guitar and write songs at the age of 12. Too shy to share her music publicly, Sadie was discovered by one of her mother's friends that works as a talent agent. On May 14, 2008, Sadie and her band had their first show in Atlanta for Epic and Atlantic Records.
The remaining concert features psychedelic indie band, The Gills on August 9, who recently opened for Sheryl Crow while in concert in Pensacola. All concerts begin at 7 p.m. Tickets are $7, and seating is general admission. Tickets can be purchased at WSRE in advance or the evening of the concert at the Amos Performance Studio ticket booth.
