Amberly Stokes was raised in the rich musical heritage of Harlan County, KY, in the heart of Appalachia. The well-known economic challenges of her home sent her seeking her fortune in the equally-rich musical environment of Chicago where she first encountered the Blues. Her affinity for the genre was immediate and she gravitated to the high-energy performances and personalities. Tony Mangiullo, of legendary Rosa’s Lounge convinced her to work for the club and this immersion in the world of Chicago Blues has given her an appreciation and perspective, a crash-course in the power of the music. Amberly shares in general management of the venue as well as special events, public relations, promo and takes special pride in her work with support and fund-raising within the Blues Community. Her work ethics and dedication to the Blues aided in Rosa’s Lounge being awarded the Blues Foundation’s 2015 KBA Recipient for Blues Club of the Year.
