She’s a little “Little Wing”.
She’s very impressive and I’d bet she’s a fan of my best friend Neil Zaza, who is very popular in Asia.

Sounds kind of Jeff Beck-ish. I like it.

Reminds me I saw this 12 year old from Norway I was very impressed with. He has more of a blues style, Stevie Ray Vaughn influence, but extremely worth hearing.

Its counterintuitive to think that someone who is that good that young wont dominate in time but I’ve been reading about these wundurkinder for decades but rarely hear anything about them when they get older even if they are out there recording and touring.
PLAYING Freeburg is no big deal. WRITING it, THAT’S the thing!
So incredibly true. I bought Bruce Springsteens autobiography “Born to run” and he said he realized he wasn’t that great a singer nor that great a guitar player so he realized that he should focus 100% of his attention to songwriting which is just what he did and THAT is what got him his career. Fantastic book even though he is a lib........

That girl is nothing short of astounding. She has a great future in J-rock, esp. when she gets old enough to be able to do vocals befitting that style of music.
Well, I’m over 50 and just shared these videos with my 82-year-old mother and my 65-year-old friend who loves metal, and we’re all blown away.
It’s not a matter of what music you grow up with, it’s about having respect for anyone of ANY age who is exceptionally talented.
And by the way, your list is nothing without Jerry Lee Lewis. ;)
Another musician prodigy story that was common during the Rock era was the Session Guy cutting an album of his own songs with many of the successful acts that he played for over the years helping him out. Wow! you think, that’ll HAVE to rock! Nope. A guy who can take some 3 chord ditty find enough vibe and feel and perhaps a riff to gild it, and do this over and over again for a decade CANNOT WRITE A SONG OF HIS OWN THAT ANYONE CARES ABOUT. Counter intuitive...
Yeah well, she still has some dues to pay.
