Shemekia Copeland on 2026-04-17 at Lizzie Rose Music Room

Shemekia Copeland returns to our stage at the Lizzie Rose Music Room. Her last concert was described as an evening like going to church and coming out fulfilled. Shemekia filled up the Music Room with her incredible vocals and provided her unique mixture of blues and soul jams. She is touring to support her new album “Blame It On Eve” and she played several jams from it including the title song along with jams from her other albums.  This woman can belt out the blues and melt your heart with a soulful ballad. Shemekia is already building a legacy and will eventually be mentioned along with Etta James and Koko Taylor as a female blues icon.

Award-winning blues, soul and Americana singer Shemekia Copeland possesses one of the most instantly recognizable and deeply soulful roots music voices of our time. She is beloved worldwide for the fearlessness, honesty and humor of her revelatory music, as well as for delivering each song she performs with unmatched passion. Copeland — winner of the 2021 Blues Music Award for B.B. King Entertainer Of The Year— connects with her audience on an intensely personal level, taking them with her on what The Wall Street Journal calls “a consequential ride” of “bold and timely blues.” NPR Music says Shemekia sings with “punchy defiance and potent conviction.” The Houston Chronicle describes her songs as “resilient pleas for a kinder tomorrow.”
