Event Details
Inspired by the variety and abundance of music in her parents’ collection, it makes sense that her music is peppered with hints of it all. Make no mistake; however, Kat Riggins is undeniably a BLUES WOMAN! She travels the world to keep the blues alive and thriving through her Blues Revival Movement.
What is a “Blues Revival” anyway? According to Kat, it is a musical revolution that aims to awaken the masses and introduce them to the sincerity behind blues music. “It’s about the raw emotion in every note”, exclaims Kat Riggins as she attempts to describe her love of the genre. Backed by a dynamic band, Kat invokes said emotion through high-energy soul shakers as well as heart-breaking ballads. During a meet and greet after a sold-out show in Belgium, a fan once jokingly asked Kat if ever there was a time she “phoned it in” to avoid ending up exhausted and sweaty by the end of the night… “If I can move someone to feel what I feel when I sing a song, then it’s all worth it”, said the Miami-born singer-songwriter.
“The diminutive Ms. Riggins may be small in stature, but she’s blessed with a powerhouse voice that will grab listeners.” – Graham Clarke
She has been vocally compared to Koko Taylor, Etta James, and Tina Turner to name a few. While influenced by those icons, Mrs. Riggins has a voice and delivery all her own. Full of power, rasp, and grit she can belt out one of her contemporary blues originals one minute, then deliver a tender, sultry standard the next. She does this all while making each person in her audience feel she is speaking directly to them. Blues Revivals are interactive and personal no matter how large the crowd. This intimacy makes every Blues Revival a memorable experience…not only for the audience but for Kat.
“A petite vocalist with a potent delivery and electrifying voice, Kat Riggins holds nothing back…”- Blues Blast Magazine
“I thank God that my passion is my purpose… That is to help preserve this endangered species called The Blues.” – Kat Riggins.
