Video: Theresa Andersson

I've spotlighted Theresa Andersson and more recently reviewed her latest album very favorably. I can say over time the album holds up and I am still enjoying it immensely. Since the release of her album Theresa has been out on the road and getting a lot more recognition than normal. She appeared on Conan's late night show. This is good for her, bad for us around here, since she used to do so many local shows. But I'm glad to see her getting a wider fan base. Here's the video that started her one woman show. To clarify she doesn't do her entire concert like this. She starts out as a one woman band and than after a few songs the rest of the band comes out and joins her. For the past decade Theresa has played the Gretna Heritage Fest until last year. The people behind the Fest were afraid that the public wouldn't like her one woman band act and told her either it went or she did. She didn't do the show. I guess she's good enough for Conan but not the city of Gretna. This video is closing in to a million views, which is great.

Saw her again about a month ago in Va, she was great. I brought along a friend who hadn't heard any of her stuff, needless to say she was buying the cd by the end of the night! This video is great, but seeing her live is better!
