From dialect, followed by 80's German pop, to classic songwriter numbers in English. Her very own musical traveling circus.

QUOTES


"Every time I start to feel good about my playing and general overall knowledge of the guitar, I will get together with Carl and see truly how far I have to go. I am proud to call him my friend. A master of the guitar and a helluva nice guy to boot." -Joe Bonamassa


"Carl is so overwhelming to sit in a room and jam with, let alone his playing on records and stage. You get the impression there is no style or territory he is unable to explore." -Brad Paisley


"Carl is known as a studio guitar player but he's much more than that. His records have the great feel of a live player. He plays with a lot of feeling." -John Fogerty
