FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:ALICIA BLUE at FITZGERALDS Nightclub $20 General Admission / Reserved Tables Available Alicia Blues path to music didnt follow a straight line. Born along the San Bernardinoline in California and raised between Southern California and South Texas, she grew upbetween cultures, rhythms, and storiesmariachi on her dads stereo, West Coast soulin her headphones, and notebooks full of poetry in her backpack. Music wasnt the plan,but life had other ideas. A chance run-in with an aging soul singer changed everythinghe saw something in her, and she leaned in. The poems turned into songs, and theguitarbarely more than a few chords at the timebecame her tool for survival andconnection. She played her first open mic in 2016, armed with heart and raw talent. Just a few yearslater, Magma, one of her earliest songs, landed on Starbucks flagship Spotify playlistand played in stores around the world. Word started to spread: there was somethingdifferent about this voice. Honest. Haunting. Unafraid.By 2020, Alicia had carved out a name for herself in LAs songwriter scene, blendingAmericana, folk, and alt-country with an emotional depth that felt both timeless andrefreshingly current. A brief trip to Nashville in 2021 to write with some local legendsturned into a full-blown relocation the following spring. It didnt take long for her to findher peopleand her placein Music City. In 2024, she released a run of powerful singles, including Tennessee, a soul-stirringduet with Lucinda Williams that garnered critical buzz and introduced Alicia to a wholenew audience. By 2025, her sound had evolved again, digging deeper into the classiccountry she grew up on, colored by the mariachi melodies her Mexican father onceplayed for her. Think Dolly meets Emmylou, with a little Waylon at the edges.Now, Alicias gearing up to record her debut country album with none other than ShooterJennings, whos called her the voice of a generation and as rare as they come. Withnew music on the horizon, label talks in motion, and a voice that feels both familiar andcompletely her own, Alicia Blue is poised for a breakout yearand shes just gettingstarted.
