EG's brand new release!
On LIP SERVICE, EG KIGHT beefs up her Country-Flavored Southern-Fried Blues with some very heavy hitters from the world of Southern Rock: producer/keyboardist PAUL HORNSBY (Marshall Tucker, Charlie Daniels, etc.), keyboardist RANDALL BRAMBLETT (Sea Leavell, Bonnie Raitt, etc.), guitarist TOMMY TALTON (Cowboy), Capricorn Records session drummer BILL STEWART, and horn players EARL FORD and MARCUS HENDERSON. The CD also features her great road band and a duet with rising Blues star John Nemeth.
