Well this is kind of cool! My album "The Blues Never End" has been nominated for a "Best Acoustic Blues CD" award. You have to vote in all categories, but can take your time and resume voting anytime until Sept. 15th. Thanks!
Thank you, Sandrolin Koppel March 25, 2022
"So sick of 'best of women guitar players' lists-- Then they show gals with great cleavage and shredding guitars fast soulless noise… yay … yippee .. fast fingers ….Again .. if you have not heard me .. (you do now … )
Talent ranked on gender lists … imho is garbage in garbage out…
That being said. ..Elly was trained from early teen years by a NYC male star … testosterone on a stage but he was/ is good ..
And I have seen Elly on stages with testosterone shredder guys who couldn’t keep up with Elly’s prowess and wonderful improvisations .
Yup …. she was handed one of their electric snazzy geetar machines and on the cuff …flew …but with amazing craft that made music."

Single "January 6th" Released! December 28, 2021
Can you believe it has been a year since the stunning events of January 6th, 2021, at the US Capital? The effects of these events are still present and evolving, as facts about this day come to light. The fate of democracy itself hangs in the balance of the current investigation.This is why I wrote the song "January 6th" and took the trouble to produce it during the height of the Covid pandemic. This song is my attempt to inspire people to be vigilant in recognizing and opposing, lies, 'alternative truths,' and hate-based actions of any kind. https://itunes.apple.com/ https://open.spotify.com/album/2Tj0XrD5OpCK9EccujUXeK https://deezer.page.link/rU7a86Nd7Sxs1CdM9
