Lady Bianca has evolved into a presence in the San Francisco Bay Area and is known by her fans as the “Queen of the Blues and Gospel.” With roots in Kansas City, MO, she learned Texas Blues piano as a child and began formal training at age nine with the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. She has performed, recorded and toured the world with artists such as Sly Stone, Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker and Hall of Fame legends Bobby Bland, Willie Dixon, Etta James and Curtis Mayfield. Lady Bianca is joined by the West Coast Caravan of Allstars, a powerhouse group featuring Ronnie Stewart on lead guitar, Robert “Hollywood” Jenkins on rhythm guitar, Dalhart Johnson on bass guitar, Johnny Ramos on keyboards, David “Stix” Boyette and Danielle Wamsley on drums, and Carl Green, Phillip Reynolds and James Nelson on horns. 

Presented in partnership with AfroSolo Arts Festival, an organization which has nurtured and promoted art and culture from the African Diaspora via solo performances and the visual and literary arts for more than a quarter century.
