Highly Energetic Guitar Playing, World-Wise Lyrics, Audiophile SACD Sound!

"We got the straight tip from guitarist Ian Melrose, then we attended one of her concerts, and we were overwhelmed by her musicality and her inspiring nature not only on stage"

Consequently Stockfish recorded McKinley's album "Beggars, Fools and Thieves". The American singer/songwriter, who many years ago moved to Berlin and still lives there, got accompaniment during the studio sessions by renowned musicians like Ian Melrose, Katharina Franck (Rainbirds), drummer Ralf Gustke (Sohne Mannheims, Xavier Naidoo), and others.

USA-Berlin no connection like any other McKinley Blacks US-connection is special; one supported by that delicately balanced myriad of factors required for the artistically sublime.

Factors that dont just fall from the blue sky, but in coming together, allow artist to airdrop supplies to those awaiting authenticity and personality to be found in music.

With "Beggars, Fools and Thieves" the American singer who for years has been living in Berlin has produced her first album for Stockfisch.

You can feel it from the moment this little woman with that enormous voice enters the stage that her art is deeply rooted in genuinely American musical genres. Is that air of vitality due to her Portuguese ancestry?

The diversity of things she has done and places she has lived in has certainly influenced her biography as an artist. Highly energetic guitar playing, worldly wise lyrics, a sensuousness just under control the sky over Berlin.

"Beggars, Fools and Thieves": A title reminiscent of a medieval tale is one artists Luftbrücke an airlift to the urban gospel of megalopolis: This train is bound for glory!
