What an amazing Easter Sunday ❤️💯🎶

Miz Renee Smith was formally inducted into The National Blues Museum’s “St Louis Blues Women’s Hall Of Fame” 💙 As of now she has joined the likes of Uvee Hayes, Kim Massie and Mae Wheeler as beloved members.

I really appreciate the NBM’s forming this ongoing ring of honor. As more inductees both living and posthumously are added, I think people will be floored by the amazing women’s blues history that decorates the St Louis and East St Louis region. It is both deep and shines unbelievably bright.

Congratulations Renee!!

A sold out venue with a plethora of fellow great musicians, friends and family there to celebrate with you!
