When I was first told about this CD, I was told it was nothing but blues, but I beg to differ. It combines blues, soul, jazz, and even a little rock in it. The artist known as Gina DeLuca, has a vast array of talent that can make this metal comes first guy bow down and sing praise. On her album, ‘Blue Eyed Soul’ she sings about life, music, and relationships. There’s an array of wonderful instruments played on this album, but I think DeLuca’s strongest attribute is her voice. She ranges from Billie Holliday, Norah Jones, and Amy Winehouse. DeLuca definitely states where she comes from, from a musical standpoint. On one particular song “Days Of Soul” she discusses what happened to the good music. She also pays tribute to some of her musical heroes including James Brown, Billie Holliday, Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, and Aretha Franklin. One particular track I truly enjoyed and respect her for is “Good Life Of A Bad Girl.” She talks about how she was brought up to be a good girl, but decided to live her life her way, and be unapologetic about it. One part she sings she loves to hang out with the boys, loves to play with girly toys, and have a beer, or three. I highly recommend this CD if you’re into just having a rocking good ole time, or like hearing music that has something to say. If you’re into all the above, then Gina DeLuca is for you!

Gina absolutely love your work. I am an artist myself but not quite to your level. Watched you paint a water splash On YouTube and absolutely loved it- will you be putting it up for sale?
