Debutto per una super blues band, un quartetto, con ospiti speciali come Mitch Kashmar, Al Blake, Joel Paterson e Jeff Turmes. Vicitori dei Muddy Awards.
Sue Foley è una delle axewoman blues migliori sulla piazza. Malgrado abbia una solida carriera alle spalle, con diversi dischi pubblicati a suo nome, Sue non si è mai esposta più di tanto. Suona per il piacere di suonare, ma la sua forza esplosiva e la sua voglia di blues meritano ben altra considerazione. Forse l'occasione buona arriva con questo nuovo album, Ice Queen, registrato con musicisti texani, che presenta tre duetti di gran nome (con Billy F. Gibbons, Charlie Sextion e Jimmie Vaughan). Cannonball Blues, Ice Queen, Send Me To The Electric Chair, Come To Me, Fools' Gold le cose migliori. Rockin' the blues.
