- a documentary on her life, released in 2010.
“Her band went on first and did a tune. Duffy watched from the back of the theater. The band struck up another tune and all of a sudden, this huge beautiful voice came out of nowhere. She was walking up the aisle, mic in hand, tall and glamorous, dressed to the nines, singing and greeting the members of the audience. By the time she got to the stage they were cheering...they were hers and she was theirs.”
– Tom D’Antoni, Oregon Music News
“Sultry and sexual, beautiful and bold. Mannish boy cool, feminine frill or Raggedy-Ann mousey. She Is reckless and flailing, yet graceful in her delivery—full of wanton abandon. Duffy Bishop is a risk-taker.”
– Ty Hitzemann, Buko Magazine
"Bishop is a revelation, belting dynamic blues ... with the blistering guitar of her husband Chris Carlson."
- Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle

Meet Duffy...
From
Portland Oregon, and now here in Florida, Duffy Bishop is in the Cascade
Blues Association and Washington Blues Society Hall Of Fame, and a recipient of
both organizations' Lifetime Achievement Award. She has won the CBA's Female
Vocalist Award so many years in a row that they renamed it the Duffy Bishop
Female Vocalist Award.
Duffy
started performing professionally in her early teens. Over the course of her
four decade career she has shared the stage with many legends including Ruth
Brown, John Lee Hooker, Etta James, Gatemouth Brown, Lou Rawls, Bonnie Raitt,
Shemekia Copeland, Bo Diddley and Bobby Blue Bland to name a few.
With
her long-time collaborator, guitarist and husband Chris Carlson, they have
played venues across the USA, Canada, Norway, Japan, Hong Kong, and Austria.
Duffy
played Janis Joplin in a Seattle production of the original play Janis. Sam
Andrew, guitarist for Janis' band Big Brother and the Holding Company, was an
advisor on the show. Through that connection, Duffy performed with Big Brother
and toured Japan with the band.
