Hogg has been described as possessing “energy, expressive dynamics and phrasing” (American Record Guide), “fantastic work” (Classical Guitar Magazine) and “playing with a more distinctive and original approach that includes quickly-strummed chords, chiming arpeggios, and rapid-fire picking” (Geoff Cabin). Her playing has been further characterized as “strong, precise, and powerful” (Bushwick Music Daily), “radiating in its own light” (New Noise Magazine), carrying “élan and fine precision” (Fanfare), and “displaying a confrontational spectrum of emotions” (Music & Riots). As both a classical guitarist and performer of her original music, Hogg has toured twenty six countries across four continents and twenty two US states playing numerous festivals and concert halls, including SXSW, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Brookfield Place, as well as Portugal’s Casa da Música and Mexico’s Tlaqná Concert Hall. She has received grants and awards from Chamber Music America, Citizens Committee for New York City, Queens College, the Maurice Kagan Memorial Scholarship Award for Excellence in an Orchestral Instrument, and Mannes College.

Her recordings and performances have been noted or reviewed in publications including The New Yorker, The New York Times, NME, Big Takeover, Classical Guitar Magazine and MTV.
