Lori Linstruth

[4] Linstruth first came to prominence in the late 1980s when she was featured in Mike Varney's "Spotlight" column in Guitar Player magazine.

She moved from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles and, after a short stint in local band Jaded Lady, formed Warbride along with former Rude Girl drummer Sandy Sledge.

Linstruth left Warbride in order to move to Sweden with her then husband and the band continued for a brief period with only one original member, keyboard player Velia Garay.

He asked her to record some guitar parts for the re-release of his Ayreon album The Final Experiment and liked it, as the result invited her to join Stream of Passion.

In February 2009, it was announced that Linstruth would contribute to Lucassen's latest project, Guilt Machine, as a guitarist and lyricist.
