“This is an engaging and highly energetic band … the audience was wowed by the sheer personality of Fiona as a performer, the artistry of Mal on guitar and the musical excellence of the rest of the band.” - Bill Smith, Blues in Britain

The combined mix of skill, natural talent and enthusiasm with the love of performing music live is the heart and soul of Big Mamma’s Door. Bringing their own distinctive sound, blending rock & Roll and the Blues so that the sound is not trapped in the 1950’s, but is relevant for 21st century audiences that are demanding a good time.

The combination of smoky vocals that have been described as Etta James with a pinch of Patsy Cline and the spirit of Elvis, rolled and tumbled with Fiona’s own style, creates the front woman many a band could only dream of! They leave the audiences happy, wanting more and looking forward to the next time!
