Maddy Walsh & The Blind Spots

The Blind Spots, a tenured, original, five-piece moxy rock band steered by magnetic songstress and force of nature Maddy Walsh (think Heart; think Janis; think Adele and Blondie and Joan Jett and Talking Heads all rolled into one), recently celebrated its ten-year "bandiversary" with a sold-out show at Ithaca, NY's Hangar Theatre. The event was paired with the release of the band's fourth studio album, Talk, which they have been actively touring the country in support of. The new album brings to the stage a wide range of emotions and a matured grasp of socially-conscious songwriting, paired as always with the band's signature high-energy performances and incessant penchant for FUN.

The Blind Spots have shared festival and event bills with the likes of Lake Street Dive, Silversun Pickups, Valerie June, Rubblebucket, Jukebox the Ghost, Amy Helm, Donna the Buffalo, Sharon Jones (rest her soul), The Punch Brothers, Steve Earle, Anders Osborne, Blues Traveler, Eddie Money, and Rusted Root, among others, and they show only signs of exponential growth, as they continue to expand their touring radius, gaining new fans and momentum with each electrifying live performance.
