MANHATTAN, N.Y. - April 26, 2013 - PRLog -- DETROIT MUSIC AWARDS 2013 musicians and contributors have voted and
ELIZA NEALS has WON!
OUTSTANDING BLUES/R&B RECORDING "messin with a fool"
and
OUTSTANDING ROCK/Pop SONGWRITER!

Eliza Neals also won in 2012 for 'Outstanding Blues/R&B Songwriter' solidifying  the new Rock-n-Blues of "messin with a fool" as a classic among the best female artists today.

REAL DETROIT WEEKLY Readers (a circulation of 800,000 people) were polled and named ELIZA NEALS the BEST BLUES ARTIST/GROUP 2013!

"It’s said that everybody has had the blues, but we’d like to add not everybody can sing about ‘em. Fortunately for Detroiters, Eliza Neals can sing. And she can sing well. The Detroit Music Award-winner has a range that we don’t see a lot of around these parts. Not your grandpappy’s blues, Neals puts a modern spin on a form that birthed what we listen to today. She expertly draws from inspirations that include the legendary Barrett Strong (writer of songs like “War” and “Heard it Through the Grapevine.”) This year will be big for the sultry “Detroit Diva.” Real Detroit Weekly Feb 2013 (http://www.realdetroitweekly.com/detroit/best-music/Conte...)

The Detroit Blues Society has voted, ELIZA NEALS won the 'Detroit Blues Challenge Round Two!' The final round will be at Callahan's on October 20th, 4pm to compete for an opportunity to represent Detroit at the International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Memphis, TN in 2014.

The critics agree ELIZA NEALS is "in her own lane with the pedal to the metal!" 2012 was the year of "messin with a fool" and 2013 is proving to be righteous. The sultry and powerful blues rock vocalist, recording artist, performer and producer is being compared in the 'press' to greats like Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Adele and Ricki Lee Jones among others. Eliza Neals has garnered a splendid amount of national and international press plus radio rotation! http://ElizaNeals.com

More on "messin with a fool"
"An assembly line of blues and rock drives “messin with a fool,” it captures Detroit’s independent spirit with true grit and motor city soul. Eliza Neals sought out the unique talents of veteran writer/producer Martin ‘Tino’ Gross (Kid Rock, RL Burnside) and united him with Detroit legend Barrett Strong (Marvin Gaye, Temptations) to begin provocative recording sessions. Eliza’s “strangely sultry blues voice” and cool writing style melted with the two masters forging a solid union."

"I'm your modern day pinup, the voice of a time long lost and wrap it up into a package you could never forget..." Eliza Neals aka The Detroit Diva
