Alicia Blue
(pronounced: Alee-see-yuh)
Raised between the San Bernardino line in SoCal and the south borderlands of Texas, Alicia Blue grew up between cultures, rhythms, and stories—mariachi on her dad’s stereo, Country and Folk in her headphones, and notebooks full of poetry in her backpack. Music wasn’t the plan, but life had other ideas. A chance run-in with an aging soul singer changed everything—he saw something in her, and she leaned in. The poems turned into songs, and the guitar—barely more than a few chords at the time—became her tool for survival and connection.
Since then, Alicia has carved out a sound rooted in Americana and Country, shaped by fearless storytelling and a voice oft compared to Dolly or Emmylou, with a little Waylon at the edges. Her 2024 duet with Lucinda Williams, “Tennessee,” lit up critics and fans alike and she’s now recorded her debut country album with none other than producer Shooter Jennings, who calls her “the voice of a generation” and “as rare as they come.”
With the her first single, “Kentucky Cowboy,” hitting this May 2026, two more right behind it, a full album expected in August on Soundly/Thirty Tigers, and a tour with none other than Charley Crockett in May and June, Alicia Blue’s singular sound is set and poised to reach the audience it was made for.
