The only female guitarist part of the ‘all-star’ Experience Hendrix 2014-2017 line-up about the release: “In an era where most are skeptic about the current state and future of the music industry, I wanted Trilogy to tell a different story. The record biz might be broken and Spotify might rip us off, but that can’t keep an artist down. Creativity is very much alive, and music is the celebration of life.”
