    You should hear her do the intro to Hysteria. She’s an awesome bass player. Her stage presence has really come along way too. Her teacher at the Berklee School of Music in Boston predicted that she and her sisters would one day earn a Greammy in ten years and that was 5 years ago.🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🎸⚡️

    Now at age 19 Ale is still rockin her Spector basses. One has a wickedly cool name called "Ale's Inferno" Which is her #1. She has another one that's blue in color (though I don't know if she named that one), both are 5 stringed, and sound stellar. Ale is such a seasoned pro at such a young age, and for me a bass player of 34 years I have included her as an influence of mine. By the way, The Warning have a new record coming out June 28th 2024 called Keep Me Fed. The 5 tracks they have released are killer and Ale's Spector basses are right at the front to sucker punch ya!

      Her father is a long time friend of legendary Los Claxon bassist Pablo González Sarre ( ruclips.net/video/7b7ZVvpJ234/видео.html ) and he's been her teacher since she was about 8 (she started at 7). After starting Ale on lessons he was quickly coerced into teaching the girls how to become a band. Later he taught them how to write and arrange music, and gave them "homework" assignments to complete between lessons. When the girls decided they wanted to attend Berklee School of Music in Boston (in 2015 when they were 15-13-10), they recorded some of these songs on an EP (with Jake Carmona, a friend of Pablo) so they could sell it as part of their crowd funding. Some leftover songs ended up on their first LP (XXI Century Blood).
