No. She's been busy making a ton of videos (posting on Instagram) and getting a lot of attention. I believe a gospel artist has asked her to play on his upcoming recording.
Haha aww thanks so much! I haven't been on in months because i've been so busy with school and trying to put myself out there a bit more, but I am so thankful to have your guys support so thank you! I actually was asked to go on tour with Nick Jonas, but I had to turn it down because I felt like I was unprepared for that kind of lifestyle! I know God will bless me with much more opportunities so it's all good!
Thanks again guys and hope everyone is doing great!
 
Randy Bachman's current bass player Anna Ruddick absolutely destroys it. When she first came out on stage, I didn't know what to expect, but she was absolutely fantastic. Right in the pocket the entire time, with some seriously dirty grooves.
 
What about Aimee Mann?

I don't see why people need to be pigeon holed because of their sex. All those mentioned are bass players, and unless they're somehow playing the bass with their fallopian tubes or something the "female" bit is irrelevant no? I can't tell what sex (or height or eye colour ... ) a musician is just by listening to them

Fully agree, I thought all three were good.
My personal favorite is Paz Lenchantin, because I think she's hot and I like her style.

As far as talent and chops, everyone has something different to bring, music is not a contest, it's art.

True. I think there's two reasons why people watch Anna Sentina's videos, and the music ain't one.
Having watched just Marta and Anna, feels like Marta has a more natural feel for the groove. Mind you, both have good chops, but Anna's videos seem more contrived in terms of selling her sexuality (with revealing clothes and sly smiles) more than her bass playing. A shame really.

Kinda like that big boobed girl who plays all those classic rock songs on her acoustic.

Considering any musical genre, I'm a fan of Uxia Martinez Botana. Not just a bedroom player either and plenty of good looks to go with her talent.
Here she is holding down the low end in a Dvorak string quintet, and if you thought bass face is bad, well...


The viola-ist gets no close-ups; even the proverbial second fiddle gets more attention.
Plus they all look like they're in pain mist of the time they are playing.
