Sweet Betty: Live and Let Live

Sweet Betty was raised in Duluth, Georgia and took an early interest in music listening to her mother sing in church. Betty grew up singing gospel, blues and popular songs of the day. In the mid 1980's, she met saxophonist, Grady "Fats" Jackson. Jackson was so impressed with Betty's voice that he began featuring her on his shows throughout Georgia. Sweet Betty has since traveled thoughout the United States and Europe and is considered the finest blues singer in Atlanta
