Holy sh!t this girl can play! I read about her in some guitar mag (Frets?) a while back and she happen to come through Ann Arbor (The Ark) last week and I got a chance to go watch her play in person. Our collective jaws hit the floor, what a amazing player. A lightning fast fingerpicker and two handed, overhanded tapper too! I couldn't believe the wall of sound that was coming out of her.
If you've heard or seen her play you know what I'm talking about, and if you haven't you owe it to yourself. I think she's performing on the Carlson Daily Show (I know, I know....) sometime this month.
 
Interesting style. Not really something I'd listen to regularly. I could look at her on a regular basis, though... :D
 
I find her playing really interesting for about 10 minutes.

I guess it's different live, probably a lot more interesting than listening to recordings because you can actually see how friggin fast she's moving. I did buy her CD and some of the tapping acrobatic stuff does get boring fast now that you mention it, but I like a lot of the fingerpicking arrangements still after a few listens.
 
Intresting style

Intresting style of play, and not to bad on the eyes either, but proloned exposer is sort of like banging your head on a brick wall. Amusing at first then quite painful and you black out.
