The Ally Venable Band

\n\n11-21-2021
\n
\nWith her fourth album release\, &ldquo\;Heart of Fire\,&rdquo\; Texas&rsquo\;s favorite new gunslinger\, \;Ally Venable\, is coming off the ropes swinging. Defying dark times and rolling up the amps\, this fourth release from the acclaimed singer-songwriter is a record to rattle your speakers and signpost better times ahead.
\nStill in her early twenties\, the guitarist&rsquo\;s breakneck two decades have moved as fast as her fingers\, her path winding from childhood church choirs to the teenage influence of local heroes like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Miranda Lambert. Early releases No Glass Shoes (2016) and Puppet Show (2018) earned her international fans\, Top 10 chart placings and ETX Awards\, but it was 2019&rsquo\;s #2 Billboard-charting Texas Honeyand house-rocking sets on that year&rsquo\;s Blues Caravan tour that sent her stratospheric. Now\, with Venable&rsquo\;s fanbase snaking further around the block every time she blows into town\, Texas roots icon and Texas Honeyproducer Mike Zito is in no doubt: &ldquo\;Ally is the future of blues and the crossover music of American roots-rock.&rdquo\;
\nNot even a global pandemic could derail her momentum. Working at the Bessie Blue Studio in Stantonville\, Tennessee last February with world-renowned producer Jim Gaines\, Heart Of Fire finds Venable laser-focused on her songcraft\, challenging herself to write with unguarded honesty\, even if it hurts. &ldquo\;On this album\, I really wanted to create a tone of overcoming your struggles and persevering through them\,&rdquo\; she explains.
\nDefiant\, passionate\, honest and raw\, this is the record these times demand\, from an artist who refuses to wait for the storm to pass\, but prefers to dance in the rain. &ldquo\;My goal for this album was to give an outlet for people\,&rdquo\; Venable considers. &ldquo\;That&rsquo\;s really where the core of these songs comes from&hellip\;&rdquo\;
