She said, “I’ve been a fan of Jim’s music from a young age. Being cast in Bat Out of Hell was a dream come true and truly life changing as it opened up new doors and lead me to perform in places I could only dream of. My album of Jim’s songs is a love-letter to the fans who have supported me for nearly three years and still do to this day and Steinman himself.

All the songs have been re-arranged by my incredible friend Noam Galperin for a fresh feel and to make them more personal to me. Noam also produced and mixed some of the album as well as played keys. I had a wonderful band as well as four incredible backing singers and Lauren Drew duetting on the album with me on “Holding out for a Hero” which is one of my favourite tracks on the album.”

Tracks include “The Future Ain’t What It Used to Be”, “Rock and Roll Dreams”, “Lost Boys and Golden Girls”, “Safe Sex”, “Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad”, “Surf’s Up”, “Total Eclipse of the Heart”, “Holding Out For a Hero” and “Bad for Good”.
