With a distinctive upside-down playing style, Moye\u2019s skills on her beloved Stratocaster have garnered notice\u2014and she now serves as an endorsing artist for Fender. Handpicked to perform on the Experience Hendrix tour in 2012, Moye is often mentioned in the same breath as the legend. \u201cI don\u2019t feel pressure being compared to Jimi Hendrix,\u201d she says. \u201cI feel more pressure being a woman in a man\u2019s game.\u201d Currently Moye is prepping the release of her debut album,\u00a0<i>Rock &amp; Roll Baby<\/i>. She describes the music as \u201cin-your-face, unapologetic, sexy, confident, and in-control.
