Double Bass Katie Ernst

[DJS]

I just saw a fantastic bass player/singer at the Rochester jazz Festival. She's 22 years old, just graduated from the Eastman School of Music and doesn't even have a CD.

I'm not an upright player, but was a Suzuki violin kid, so I feel a bond with upright players.

Thanks for posting!
The voice reminds me of Joni Mitchell somewhat.
Nice!

I was blown away by the combination of voice and playing ability, knowing how tough that is to achieve in the bass world. (For me anyway) Either would likely stand on their own merits. Together they were amazing. And she sang through many of her complex parts.
