ALLIGATOR RECORDS RELEASES NEW SHEMEKIA COPELAND RECORD "BLAME IT ON EVE"

On Copeland's new album, Blame It On Eve, the songs all hit hard, with jaw-dropping performances that instantly take hold and command repeated listening.

"There's serious business on the new album, but, there are a lot of smiles here too, a lot of joyous moments," says Shemekia Copeland. "It's my blues for sure but it's the brighter side. Issues are always important to me, but so is rocking, dancing and just having fun. And that's something we all can all agree on."

Blame It On Eve was recorded in Nashville and produced by instrumentalist- songwriter Will Kimbrough (who also produced her previous three albums). It features 12 new songs that tackle subjects as important as a woman's right to choose and climate change, but also leaves space for Copeland to have fun and unwind. From the autobiographical, rocking blues boogie Tough Mother to the anthemic title track's good-humored, but serious focus on reproductive self-determination to the happy hour of Wine O'Clock, Copeland is inspired throughout.
