      I was thinking exactly this as I was watching. Absolute guitar goddess! And the two guitars give me a kind of Television-y vibe in how well they complement and support each other, and each do interesting things at all times.

    People complaining about her voice: you do know this is indie rock, right? Sometimes more enjoyable than a perfect voice is reaching for that one note and not quite grabbing it. Lighten up.

    • @jske60

My post was talking to 'the people complaining about her voice' as the OP referenced. These complainers are the ones who think everything is a singing contest and they are completely missing the point.

    Reminds me of the best local bands of the 90s nobody ever heard, like your favorite local band that should be something but are probably too cool and not chasing a trend enough for people to see them correctly. Plus alot of my favorite bands from back then too. They feel natural and real, a band with actual personality. I love how thats becoming more the focus with people instead of genre concepts that become parodies. All those cool bands didnt know what they were, just who they were, which they couldnt help or wouldn't want to change.
