"I was way too immature and insecure to do it then", she says. "It was also encouraging to me since Suzi Quatro and Joan Jett both did the all-girl band early in their career. Seeing what came of it in each musicians lives, it wasn't meant to be for me cuz LOL my path is my frakin own!!!!!!" ;D
She is joined by DRUMMER JEFF ARMSTRONG/VOX

ALBUM REVIEWS...
THE NOISE REVIEW, APRIL ISSUE 2007
STEPHIE PEEKA & THE SEEKING 7
No Bullshite Rock and Roll Records
Inside the Big Picture
16-song CD
I know that bar rock means a hundred things to a hundred people, but what I mean by it here is that I picture this three-piece starting their set in a crowded, noisy bar, where the hipper-than-thou are trying to figure out how to drink a beer with both arms crossed over their chests, but are then forced to take notice of the music and remember why they’re in a bar that has live music instead of a bar filled with mirrors.
Stephie Peeka is a multi-tasker extraordinaire–she handles all the vocals and guitars here, as well as keys and assorted other sound-making. She has a voice that I’m willing to bet soars out of a P.A. and right through crowd-noise.
Oh, it’s clever enough to be more than just pop rock, and the louder I play it, the better (Stephie’s no slouch on guitar).
(Tim Emswiler)
CD BABY REVIEW:
Loved this CD!!! Rock on.
Reviewer: Kendall
This CD is awesome! I totally LOVE Freedom, and the whole sound has sort of an 80's-vibe to it.
Your voice is really unique and i get the songs stuck in my head a lot! Congrats on a job well d..]

Peeka howls like Robert Plant, plays guitar like Jimmy Page...she's a double dynamo! Get this album, and see this band live for piss sake!
