"Blues music offers me a different kind of freedom that I'd never felt before," says Bridget Ideker in this interview from February 19, 2016.
With a background in church singing and theater, Ideker had never considered fronting a band before encountering longtime Duluth musicians Vincent "Cadillac" Hladilek and Patrick McKinnon at a poetry open mic in 2014. Cadillac, who'd been performing his own blues compositions, jumped at the chance to focus on guitar and let the charismatic vocalist interpret his songs. The four-piece, which also includes drummer Nick Petoletti, bookended their session with two Cadillac originals, "Baby Blue" and "Right Through the Night," with a cover of "Big Boss Man" in between.
