Everybody knows I'm more into trance, but this chick is fucking amazing.

Thoughts?

 

I find her to be interesting but the percussion on the guitar can be a bit much for me at times in her music. I enjoy a little bit of guitar percussion but sometimes they are a bit overbearing. She's good but some of her songs (Playing with Pink Noise being the most famous one) sounds unbalanced to me. She does seem to be pretty successful so maybe I'm just not getting her style.

Anyways, my opinions above are only about her solo acoustic guitar stuff. She sounds much more amazing when playing with a band.

Some other awesome guitar players:
