What's concept behind the crow collar?
Nice site Oz. I really admire what you've done.
Watching the wild drummer video, I stumbled onto this young girl. I thought I'd share.
Desiree Bassett - 15-18 years old in the following performances.
I'm not a fan of her singing but she can play guitar. A mean guitar.
Did I mention she's a Hendrix fan?
You can skip ahead to the 3:45 mark to jump over the singing in this next vid of one of her originals.

this I pulled from Wikipedia
At 2 years old, Bassett's musical ability was encouraged by her parents after hearing her sing herself to sleep singing
Reba McEntire songs.
[5] A year later, she began playing a half-size
Lotus guitar.
[6] Her father recalls when she surpassed his ability at guitar when, at 4½, she was correcting his playing mistakes. The defining moment for him came after listening to his daughter play an intricate
Joe Satriani song that he himself had spent almost ten years to learn, without success:
[6]
By the time she was 5, her father began training her on a full-sized 1983
Ibanez Roadstar II.
[3] At 8, she played her first competition at the local fair grounds playing a
Joe Satriani cover, coming in second place.
[7] At the age of 9, she began taking singing and guitar lessons at the
University of Connecticut music program,
[8] where it was discovered she had
perfect pitch and could
play by ear.
[6] She soon began giving lessons herself.
[5] Bassett counts among her influences
Jeff Beck,
Rik Emmett,
Jimi Hendrix, Reba McEntire, the
Allman Brothers and her personal idol
Joe Satriani.
