They both still put out material and tour solo. But EG Kight and Lisa Biales bring magic when together and have done since '10 or so.. Neither the Amazin's or AMG had anything but their Wordpress Site says everything--it's well-done but then again these are 2, er, "battle-tested" in about every way--so they know what's enticing and right. Worth at least a cruise-through:

Thanks again Jazzy! This upbeat happy time blues is just what the doctor ordered. I have been immersed lately in the blues underground! There are so many delightful surprises there! Those gals can really belt out the blues and make the electric acoustics wail!

Next is her some-time partner and long time friend, Lisa Biales. FB page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lisa-Biales-Music/175271872494812 Her Site: http://www.lisabiales.com/?section=home Here's the Amazin's take including a bio though 2010: http://www.amazon.com/Lisa-Biales/e/B001LH6280/ref=ac_dtp_sa_bio
She has a pure voice that can attract folky-types to genuine Blues music.
