The Tanya English Band

The Tanya English Band has been bringing women’s empowerment blues to the eastern Iowa audience for over a decade. A life-long fan of the blues, it all began when Dr. English heeded the call to unleash her inner blues singer. Her husband, “Uncle” Ed English, is a renowned area bass player and a steadfast supporter of her healing work. Together, they started the band and have witnessed powerful healing, both while performing and in her practice. The result was Healing with The Blues! ™ They have brought together the finest area musicians, offering the blues and healing to you! Featuring IC guitar slinger, Dave Rosazza, the band now includes: Sean Seaton on keys and Paul Cunliffe on drums. Come check them out, they’re all in the Iowa Rock n Roll Hall of Fame as members of Iowa City’s legendary band, Shade of Blue.

[Note: Trio shows are also available, featuring Sam Price on guitar, for more intimate settings, playing the blues and standards from the American songbook. Hit the CONTACT link for additional information and bookings.
