Yes, originality and subtlety that is her own. Everyone has influences. Her melody lines are unique and beautiful. I have been playing guitar for nearly 60 years You aren't listening!
This song kicks major ass, man. Been a while since I've heard anything quite as original as this. Nice work, Irene, i'll be listening to more of your stuff.
Simon, what a lovely comment, I really really appreciate it. I love songwriting and it's such a challenge without words, it feels amazing to be able to communicate it to you!
Es maravilloso ver la cantidad de chicas que en los últimos tiempos están poniendo a la guitarra en primer plano. En el caso de Irene plena de sentimiento a la vez que impecablemente técnica. Gracias a ella por compartir su arte ❤
Tasteful, melodic and incredibly dynamic! Love seeing a guitar player more focused on melodic lines and tonal variation for expression rather than constant 20 notes per second riffs. Kudos to you 🤟
Yaaaayyy!!!!!! What a way to start a week!!!!!! Need a G3 with Irene, Nita and Molly Tuttle and whomever. Thank You soooo much for sharing with us! Best Regards and Best Wishes!
To fill the "whoever" slot, I recommend Jackie Venson. Each of these women have brought unique and memorable contributions to the ever expanding story of the guitar. Disregarding the fact of their femininity, their creative exploration of the possibilities of the guitar stand on their own merit. Irene emirates a raw visceral growl from her tele that hints she may have been to the crossroads and come out on top. The amazing wealth of an infinite variety of musical expression and connected network linking diverse personalities sharing a common passion has truly brought about an artistic Renaissance. In many ways, we are quite fortunate and blessed to be here now, to witness, and experience this unprecedented moment and participate in it's continuous evolution.
@Ireneket you're quite deserving of such honor, first by the raw power of your music, which clearly demonstrates your focus, dedication, and passionate drive for musical expression. Additionally, by the kind ,open, and free-spirited exchange on a personal level ,which takes the artist -audience dynamic to a place of connected personal interaction. Where the variance of time and distance of place present no impedance to connectivity and communication. Technology applied allows a worldwide reach with the connected interaction previously only dreamed of. When I was young, most of my musical Fandom consisted of radio and albums. The sounds that pumped my soul were from faceless names. A few were "known" by magazine articles that put a face to the music. Video to accompany musical audio was exceedingly rare. The best shot at communication with a musical performer was hanging around after a show, hoping to maybe look them in the eye, maybe hear them say something, or possibly meet them. And that was IF they came to town, and IF I could get in the show. When I met my first musician that I idolized since childhood, I was so nervous I kind of came of as an idiot. But part of the magical experience I referred to prior, where you and I, and all people, have this opportunity for genuine, powerful, meaningful interpersonal communication and connection. At no point in prior history have we been more able, to reach around the world discover new true friends, touch their heart, and share the journey. I believe we who live today are the most fortunate of any time in history.,,, so far. I'm thankful for my journey, thankful that time and space have enabled our friendly exchange, thankful for the power of resonant harmonious vibrations of flesh, and steel and wood. The voice of the guitar has always been my muse. I am most honored to make personal connection to you Irene. Thank you for your kind communication. I'll absolutely be impatiently waiting for some new grooves, but for now, the guitar in my mind sounds like Stardust.
Irene, congratulations for your recent uploads that are amazing! Folks, I first heard Irene Ketikidi on an International Female Rock Jam project back in 2015, featuring Anouck Andre, Laura Klinkert, Lari Basilio, and Irene. As I also live in Greece, I have followed Irene Ketikidi, as it’s a small country. Having said that, to all of you that that have commented, please share on your social media Irene’s work, as she deserves a larger audience! So let’s give her a bigger platform! Thanks for your time!
Love it, Beautiful Tele, Great Tone - I'd cut the opening by 20-30 seconds and keep everything else - when you kick it up at 1:00 minute in it takes off and its thaumastos. 🎼 😄❤🐰🎶💐🍻🌐🎸🎹🎛 🎷🎵
Great mood piece. Nice atmospherics and articulation. Going from riffs to chords to arpeggios works like a charm. LOVE the dynamic of the major change at 4:48, sounds like something Geddy and Alex would write! I hear your gift maturing, Irene.
If you had not uploaded this I'd never have heard your masterful work. ❤ I could listen to this all day, every day and always be fulfilled with what you are doing. Thank you Irene for sharing your awesomeness with us!
I listen to alot of heavy metal ,bloodred hourglass,parasite inc ,,,arch enemy ,,etc ...very rarely, do i listen to the slow melodic guitar ...but stardust,a church for all,from your album ,i listen too loads !!! Just lose myself in both tracks ...epic
Big thanks for the close ups. That makes it literally a lesson in itself (excluding those camera twists). 3:39 and 4:11 reminds me of motives Polish band Closterkeller used to put in the early 90's into their songs. This music piece blends few rock sub genres and it's doing it very good. Hard rock, stoner rock and gothic rock in one musical ride. Thank you Irene.
Dass ist, was die Leute nicht Analysieren können. Immer wieder diese Vergleiche. Der einzige, der Musik in seinem Geist hatte war, Jimmy Hendrix. Alles andere ist nur Gasabel. Der hatte eine Wohnung gemietet in deren Zeit in London, wo Heiden wohnte und arbeitete als deutscher Komponist, die haben es damals als Museum umgebaut. Jimmy Hendrix hatte damals einige Originalle Arbeit angekauft. Der hätte diese Musik umgewandelt in seinem Still. Deswegen keiner Oder nur sehr weniger Musiker, wussten nichts davon. Und konnten es Nicht Verschtehen, sein Still die Unique war, alles andere ist Geschichte.
Wow! Jetzt kann ich nicht mehr schlafen, so schön und so tief und so klar. Wenn ich den Text eingeübt habe, dann nehme ich das echt mal auf.... Egal wie peinlich das dann ist.
Mensch! Das war ja wieder aufregend... So klar und tief, einfach unglaublich. Keine Ahnung warum, aber bei Ihnen muss ich immer den Text laut mitsingen😀😀😀.... geht so: ... und ich geeeeeh... meinen Weeeeeeg... immer nur mit diiiiiir... du bist immer bei miiiiiir. Zum Glück kann das dann niemand hören. Beste Gitarrenmusik, die ich kenne💙❤🖤💥
Wow! Amazing discovery! Honestly, I didn't know you. Thanks to YT Algorithms for assuming that based on my musical preferences I should like someone like you. Whoever insists on saying that Rock is dead is because they haven't heard your guitar yet and haven't felt your emotions when playing it. Beautiful!
I'm very excited, love your playing-very inspiring. Had a big smile on my face reading your signed card, when i had one of the last martial arts albums end of last month in my hands. I'm so thankful for that, its in a contiuos loop in my car atm-all of the tunes are very cool, goosebumps included (at "distance", the very first tune i heard from you, discovered at your piraeus gig). Peace & love! 🙏🏻 🎸
This woman plays with taste and originality. This is the best electric guitar piece that I have heard in a long time. Ms. Kedikidi, my respect.
🤗🙏🙏
I just love your comment I could not have said any better
Originality you say I disagree a lot of this just sounds like Joe satriani rip off certainly not anything special sorry not sorry
Yes, originality and subtlety that is her own. Everyone has influences. Her melody lines are unique and beautiful.
I have been playing guitar for nearly 60 years
You aren't listening!

In the right hands a tele can do anything. Looks like an American Elite and sounds like drop D tuning.
❤❤❤❤❤
What we are witnessing here is a hauntingly beautiful masterpiece of guitar work. Thank you for letting us watch your amazing talent in action.
I am honestly humbled by this comment! "Hauntingly beautiful" will haunt ME beautifully as a phrase from now on , thank you

I love the sustain that you twist out of this Tele Irene and the slow burn melodic solo is excellent. 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much, lovely comments all 😀
I could listen to this forever and never get bored
😁😁
I hope there is a time I see you and your orchestra band live. It's real music. thank you
I will travel to your home land when you all are jamming there. What an experience for me that will be.
So expressive, wonderful.

It's one of my favourites too, especially during the original composition process:)
