Dear All,

I had the absolute honor of joining this heart-warming panel at NAMM Show this past January, marking the 10th anniversary of my late fiancé, Keith Emerson —alongside an incredible group of artists and dear friends: Steve Porcaro, Rich Walborn, Brian Kehew, Rachel Flowers, and Michelle Moog-Koussa🩵

Now, I’m beyond excited to share that the full panel is finally premiering TODAY, April 11th at 5 pm US Eastern Time (10 pm in UK / 6 am on 4/12 in Japan) on YouTube—and it will be available for everyone to watch for free.

I’ll also be there live during the premiere, chatting with you and answering your questions in real time—so please don’t miss it. This is more than a panel; it’s a deeply personal and heartfelt tribute. You’ll hear intimate, rarely shared stories about Keith from those who knew and loved him most.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us in person, to my amazing fellow panelists, and especially to Michelle Moog-Koussa for making this all possible.

This is a special one—I truly hope you’ll join us.
