Critics have called Katie Garibaldi "the girl next door with a magical talent and an affable delivery," and "the real deal," and have compared her to such greats as Sheryl Crow, Jewel, Fiona Apple, and Ani DiFranco. The singer-songwriter, who has called the Luna Trinity her "dream guitar" in interviews, notes that she is "thrilled to be a part of the Luna Guitars family. Their instruments are truly amazing and so are the people in the company. I've been playing guitar for about 15 years now, but once I picked up a Luna, I realized that I had been missing out on what a great guitar should supply a player with. My Trinity is so comfortable and has such a delightful sound. I'm very happy with it, and absolutely ecstatic over the Luna team featuring me and my music on their website."

Fans can catch Garibaldi with her Luna guitar Friday, January 14, 2011 at 5:30 pm at Borders Westfield Center located at 845 Market Street in San Francisco, where she'll be performing a free in-store show, as well as signing copies of her album Next Ride Out. Following her hometown in-store performance, Garibaldi will be making an appearance at the NAMM Show the weekend of January 15, 2011. Next, she returns to the Bay Area for a line of shows before heading to Nashville for more touring. You can view her complete tour schedule at http://www.katiegaribaldi.com.
