Talk about the epic.

Mr.Bassie720 · #2 12-30-2010, 02:44 PM

Epic is a good description. I've seen her play 4 times in the past 2 years. Phenomenal performer. Slap, finger style and pick. Sometimes all in the same song! Not a household name. Yet. Young and talented. She is only getting better. And she is not hard to look at

I had front row at one of the Sick Puppies show. I was right in front of her. She played so great, and had a tone to die for. After the show she gave me her pick, and introduced me to the whole band and I got all of their autographs.

very cool person!

Not a fan of the genre.. but the player is nice... Too bad all I could find were Iphone vids with so many fans whooping it up couldn't hear the music as well as I would have liked.... but from what I heard.. she has some nice chops... very easy on the eyes.. and a nice voice to boot... singing or speaking...

FrenchAK · #8 12-31-2010, 05:23 PM

Saw them in January of this year. No doubt about it, she (and the rest of the band) can rock. They put on an amazing live show, the whole experience was perfect. I even got autographs from the three of 'em!

Quite an impressive performance. And clearly a confident, talented player. The song was pretty awful IMHO, as is most of their stuff from what I can tell. But that's fair enough, it just ain't my bag. And the plus side of all that pubescent screaming from the front row is that, if only for the duration of that gig, they all wanted to be bass players.

I'm psyched to see there latest single getting a lot of air play. . . I gotta get more of their stuff to listen too.

TrevorOfDoom · #11 01-01-2011, 12:45 PM

much like Flea (of whom she claims to be the female equivalent), she's good, but not good enough to make me forgive the crappy (IMO) music.
however, i do like looking at her, so that has to count for something, right?

CameronPutnam · #12 01-03-2011, 01:46 PM

I have both of their famous albums, and I've listened to their original EP and liked most of it. She is my idol as a bass player, and I have a celebrity crush on her. I wish that there new single show cased her skills more but at least its getting people listening to them.

coffeebeans · #13 01-03-2011, 05:10 PM

Saw her back in 2009 at a music fest here in Rochester. It was the first time I had ever seen her (or that band) and I was instantly smitten, lol.

Awesome player and I think she's pretty hot. Plays Warwick, too. Nice.

Gawd · #14 01-03-2011, 05:48 PM

She's got a good stage presence, and holds her own. Unfortunately the band is pretty awful to my ears.

TerraVoltage · #15 07-30-2011, 08:27 PM

One of my favorite Bassists, I know she uses a warwick stage 1 but does anyone know what kind of strings she uses? Because i play a lot of SP Covers, and i want it to sound right.

Mr.Bassie720 · #16 07-30-2011, 09:58 PM

D'Addarios. Not sure what type or gauge, but roundwound for sure.

JimiLL · #17 07-30-2011, 10:03 PM

Female equiv. to flea?? Not so much.

But I do like her.... and yes... very good to look at.

If all chicks that played bass looked like her or if all hot chicks that play sounded as good as her... I don't know what I would do...

The fact that she plays long scale and she's like 5'2" is also a plus.
