Blues Revue profiles Eden Brent in "New Women of the Blues" feature
Eden Brent is featured as one of seven "New Women of the Blues" in the current issue (Feb/Mar) of Blues Revue magazine. Detailing her partnership with pianist Abie "Boogaloo" Ames, Eden explains, "Here I am, a young white lady, and there's Boogaloo Ames, an older black man. I came from a family of privilege; he lived on the other side of the tracks. The state of Mississippi liked us because we represented the way it really is and not a Mississippi Burning Hollywood production."Going on to describe her transition to solo performer after Boogaloo's passing, and release of Mississippi Number One, Eden summarizes, "All I ever wanted to do is play music, meet a lot of great people, travel to new places, have a good time, and make a damn living... So far, so good."
