Their music has been described as emotionally charged,
passionate, high melodic and compelling. An all-female
quartet with a "unique command over the song,"
Blame Sally is Pam Delgado, Renee Harcourt, Jeri Jones,
and Monica Pasqual. The four accomplished instrumentalist
/ singers combine their strikingly different approaches
to create a distinct and beautiful sound.
The band formed in 2000 and soon released a live album
that was strong enough to grab attention of festival
and venue bookers all over California.
KFOG's Rosalie Howarth not only plays Blame Sally regularly
on her hugely popular program Acoustic Sunrise, but
selected a track from "Blame Sally Live No. 1"
to appear on the program's Ten Year Anniversary CD along
with songs by Paul Simon, Louden Wainright III, Bruce
Cockburn, Dar Williams, The Waifs and more.
Blame Sally's studio album, "Blame Sally,"
released in April 2004 has been getting quite a lot
of press and airplay. A track from the CD has been included
on KFOG's newest World Class Rock compilation CD, Local
Scene, released in July 2004. Proceeds from the Local
Scene CD will benefit Music in Schools Today, a Bay
Area charity keeping music in children's education since
1989.
