3RDEYEGIRL Donna Grantis

I was just reading in the April issue of Guitar Player yesternight about a woman who play in two bands with Prince, and yes, Prince is in both bands too.
She uses an older CE and really likes it.
She says most of their guitar solos are improv too.

Found another one of her without Prince.

Her playing is very Prince-like but still an amazing player!

Just saw that she was at Experience 2010 too.

Great interview.

That one I posted above from 2010 when the song first starts out you think she is going to play The Ocean by Led Zeppelin, but then it goes to something else.
Very cool song though.

I honestly had not heard of her before until I was reading the issue of Guitar Player.

3RDEYEGIRL is a top-notch band! Met Hannah Ford Welton, and her husband, two years during a GC workshop (Before she was in 3EG). Very nice and talented people!!!

I'm surprised I've never heard of her! Definitely going to have to go check out her stuff after that version of 'If 6 was 9'

Love me some Donna Grantis! Her album is very good. I was thrilled that she got the Prince gig, because she'll get a ton of exposure. Unfortunately, it means less of her music for now.

She was at two Experiences - 2010 and 2011.

And she's a nice person, too. She even takes pictures with the talently and aesthetically disadvantaged...
