About This Item
This is no time for faint hearts. The pandemic might have silenced the music scene, shuttered the live circuit and divided artists from their fans. But with Heart Of Fire, Texas's favourite new gunslinger Ally Venable is coming off the ropes swinging. Defying dark times and rolling up the amps, this fourth from the acclaimed singer-songwriter is a record to rattle your speakers and signpost better times ahead.

Now, with Venable's fanbase snaking further around the block every time she blows into town, Texas roots icon and Texas Honey producer Mike Zito is in no doubt InchAlly is the future of blues and the crossover music of American roots-rock.Inch Album Tracks 1.
