Your band recently won three MAMAs. How did it feel to be recognized like that?: It was incredible. It was such an honor, since Madison is such a thriving music scene, especially for blues music.

You are moving to North Carolina and the band is looking for a new lead singer. What kinds of qualities are you looking for in your successor?: Some strong types, for sure. Blues requires plenty of belting. Someone who has some style, someone who can really command the audience. A band is a combination of music and relationships, and you really need to find somebody who fits well into both of those areas.

What is your favorite Disney movie?: The Parent Trap. I have an identical twin sister, so I always identified with the whole idea of switching up identities, that was always fun.

You can check out the Mud Angels 9 p.m. Friday at the Cloud 9 Grille and 9:45 p.m. Saturday at the Badger Bowl.ounds like: Susan Tedeschi, Sue Foley, Allman Brothers
