Details:
Gina De Simone. One woman, a buncha guitars, and a whole lotta blue smoke. Using both acoustic and electric guitars, Gina serves up a spicy mix of finger-slapping funk, jazzy blues and smoky folk guitar.
Her new CD "The Moons of Jupiter" is funky, energetic, soulful. Marked by Gina's signature sound "acoustic groove" this CD is a journey through space, time and musical genres. You'll travel from pure rock, to honky-tonk, to acoustic blues and more. Every twist and turn accented by stunning guitar work. Once the grooving rhythms have grabbed your attention you'll find sincere, meaningful and often humorous lyrics.
Gina she picked up the guitar at age 9 and began taking lessons at a local music store. "I wanted drums," she explains, "but my parents gave me a guitar instead. Turns out I love playing guitar, but I think my songs are so rhythmically oriented because there's a bit of drummer in me." As a teenager, Gina broke the stereotype of the female folk guitarist by playing lead guitar in rock bands.
