Over twenty albums and thousands of performances later, she established herself as one of the world's great blues guitarists and a serious student of her instrument. Increasingly curious about the lives and careers of women guitarists who preceded her, she interviewed more than a hundred of them across every musical genre, including folk-blues pioneer Joan Armatrading to classical star Liona Boyd.The result is Guitar Women, a compelling account of the cultural and personal struggles faced by women playing an instrument associated with masculine prowess in a male-dominated industry. Through personal essays and intimate interviews, Foley highlights the resilience, determination, and creativity of her six-string heroines, celebrating their achievements and honoring their influence on her own life and career.
