SUE FOLEY (CA) - One Guitar Woman

One of contemporary blues’ leading voices, Sue Foley makes her long-awaited Australian debut, bringing her unmistakable style and warmth to audiences for the very first time.

A GRAMMY®-nominated guitarist, singer-songwriter and five-time Blues Music Award winner, Foley has spent decades establishing herself as a stalwart of the international blues scene, renowned for her mastery of blues, Piedmont fingerpicking, flamenco and classical guitar. 

Her acclaimed album One Guitar Woman: A Tribute to the Female Pioneers of Guitar earned a 2025 GRAMMY® nomination for Best Traditional Blues Album, showcasing her remarkable versatility. With One Guitar Woman, she reclaims history, redefines what a guitar hero can be and continues to push the boundaries of her craft while honouring the artists who paved the way.

Now, Australian audiences finally have the chance to experience Sue Foley live, in a long-overdue debut not to be missed.
