A Psychedelic Rock experiemental group Blending 1960's blues fusion with 1990's hiphop
"Kristen Cardiasmenos is a bright spot in the crop of musicians coming up right now. What is different about her is that she has a strange linkage to the guitar music of the 1960s. She has told me that she feels she was born in the wrong decade. She understands rock and blues music in a way that almost none of her contemporaries does! She has a guitar heart!"
-Garth Webber (Guitarist on tour with Miles Davis 1986)
The Kristen Cardiasmenos Project provides a powerful psychedelic sonic experience that fans find deeply memorable, with the soulful emotion Kristen provides, it brings audiences back to the rush of 1960’s summer of love... with a modern twist!
