Gwen's album, INSTEAD OF LIGHT, is out NOW.  Danny Kopelson (of Cassandra Wilson Grammy-winner, "New Moon Daughter") produces, along with Atlanta's favorite rock star, DREW YOUNG (of "Ruben Kincaid").  

Georgia Music Magazine says of an advance copy of INSTEAD OF LIGHT:  "With this essential addition to her impressive canon of performances, looks like she'll be on that stage for years to come, with a thoroughly mesmerized crowd in tow, hanging on every nuanced interpretation."
