We’ll also be returning back to some of our favorite places we played this year, including Corktown in Detroit and back to the marvelous Book Beat bookstore for a reading and performance with great authors and musicians. My book, “Detroit (Maiden Energy)” is again being added to more bookstores and the Europe tour back to the Isle of Wight and to London, as well as Italy, is moved to the summer of 2023
Hope to see you soon with a new album as I work on another book. Remember to keep the faith, organize and be ready to vote blue in November!
Love,

“Love the colour of your heartfelt voice, lovely intro on ‘Cornered Room’ great song! ‘Let It Go’ another favourite of mine, nice rapping, and love the gypsy feel on ‘Russian Inn’ beautiful violinist. Stunning album, love it”
Striho continues to share her brilliance, effortlessly moving from bluesy and jazzy to belted out rock & roll. Her latest release, Afterthought, showcases all of these styles, along with a few more that might surprise people. The musical poetry is undeniably Striho however, and she manages to pull everything together with the ease of a seasoned pro and the flair of a master illusionist. She makes her own creative path and people can’t help but follow where she leads…
“Afterthought moves through a host of musical moods, from the moodier, darker vibe of the opening title track to exotic gypsy-rock feel of “Russian Inn” to the lively, driving sound of “Love Won’t Stay Close” which you can hear exclusively for now in this Freep First Spin debut.”
