The Gig Cartel - Artist profiles: Sari Schorr and Matt Pearce

Two leading blues rock artists, who are currently among the top new international touring acts in the genre, are joining forces to tour the UK backed by their full electric and high energy live bands.

Sari Schorr with her jaw-dropping voice and a live show that erupts like a volcano have catapulted Sari into the spotlight as one of the hottest new blues-rock singers today. The native New Yorker is taking the blues world by storm, and with a voice that jolted legendary blues producer Mike Vernon (think Fleetwood Mac, Clapton, and Bowie) out of retirement, it’s not hard to see why. It’s no wonder that Blues Matters said, “The future of blues is in good hands. Sari is a gift to all of us from the Blues Gods.” 

Matt Pearce & The Mutiny are classic, pulsating blues-rock tinged with latin, funk and soul. Imagine Joe Cocker, Santana, Prince & Stevie Wonder playing some seriously funky guitar. Matt’s 2 solo albums both reached the top of the blues charts, and the singles all enjoyed strong radio play. With very complimentary reviews from around the world, one reviewer even describing Matt Pearce and the Mutiny “like Prince jamming with Bonamassa”, Matt’s future is very bright.
