The sad thing about this is that I am 54, played guitar since I was 15, been "lazy" about getting distracted about video games and other things--and could never play like this little guitar monster in my almost 40 years of playing. She is GREAT and obviously exceptionally gifted. (I love her vibrato!!)

What is so special about her playing? I dont hear anything. Just the same pentatonic noodles every other guy plays

I remember watching her go live on Reddit, during the time that she spoke of, when shelter in place is implemented. She used to sit on the roof of her house and just jam on an acoustic, it was amazing she had to have been 13 or 14 at the time. She is a natural, this young lady has had it in her for quite some time, it's cool to see her flourish into her own right, in the professional music scene. She deserves every bit of recognition & success coming her way, phenomenal gifted musician.

I'm glad for her moment in time. Years from now, she'll look back fondness. Our LORD & KING, watch over your Princess. Give her wisdom beyond her years, and be her guard against the wolves.

Gary, I've prayed that similar prayer over so many young guitarists, begging God to keep them safe as they navigate their way through the mire that is the music industry. I've had nothing but bad luck myself and when I see fresh young people coming up, and the same unmitigated bastards who ruined my career over and over, lining up to ruin them, it truly breaks my heart! Try and tell 'em though, and most of the time they just can't believe that I'm telling them the truth.

This young lady is pure class!

Playing unplugged while watchin TV/Videos ia something I do to this day. Great video man.

Such a humble person with MAD skills and such a strong feel for melody. Beautiful young lady with a beautiful personality and the guitar chops to back it all up. Best of luck to her on a long long prosperous career.. ❤️❤️

I started to play when I was 16, which was nearly 50 years ago. I had a stroke about 14 years ago. I'm starting to learn again as I can't remember how I used to play , thanks to KZread I'm sort of learning again, but seeing this wee lass I'm thinking of giving up she is great

as someone around the same age as grace, ive never been more inspired

What a gift. I love her enthusiasm for all kinds of music.

Very humble little awesome guitar player. And so young. I'm going to follow this one, she is great to listen to. Both guitarists in this video were very good including the host.

This is SO GREAT!!! Honestly, I hope this inspires other girls to do their thing and own it. A lot of my favorite musicians in the last 30 years are women, and to see this kid be an ace at 17 makes me so happy and hopeful for the future. Tyler, you're terrific for doing this, and I sincerely hope Grace does take over the world.

The future of music is in safe hands 🤘Have been watching her on Instagram for a while now and she is amazing 🤘

Love hearing and seeing young folks passionate about music and especially guitar! She's great. I look forward to seeing what she comes up with in what will certainly be a long career in music.

So great to see young people coming back to the guitar. It doesn’t hurt that she’s very likeable and cute, she actually gives me young Dolly vibes. Players like her will draw young guys back to the guitar and make it cool again!

I think we just see some very exceptional young people who play it. But overall I don’t think more people are picking up guitar.

It's really exciting to see new young talent that can carry the torch of great music.

I wonder how many kids got hooked on Guitar Hero and then went on to real guitar and got discouraged and quit. Millions. How many stuck with it? Enough to lead the instrument into the future. She also has a lot of influences from many styles of music which is rare for a young'in. I wish her well.

What an amazing musician, I can't wait for the rest of the album to come out.

She cracks me up. I’m in my 50’s and she looks like the poster of my generation. She has great thing going, great vision and understanding of the guitar. She looks amazing behind a guitar. It match made in heaven!

First saw her with Marty Schwartz. Grace is a phenomenally talented and humble person! All the BEST to her!⭐️🙏⭐️

Amazing!! Great big successful career ahead of her! All the best!

Years ago, l was so excited to discover Grace and her talent. Now after years of grooming by her production team, l don’t know who she is musically. And l’ve seen every interview. I don’t know if she is a great improviser, session player, songwriter, received any formal music education, produced music for artists, performed on recordings for artists, played in music festivals, produced her own videos, gone on a live tour, signed a recording deal, or really been exposed to the public for scrutiny. But I have been told by every interviewer that she is a wonderful person and has individual characteristics that make her unique and amazingly special. And it’s been years of this. As someone who believes in her, l am beaten to death by the People magazine aspects of her life and need to be satisfied musically by her playing achievements. And years later l’m still waiting because of only two reasons- her production team doesn’t want that or she isn’t capable of that. Time to cut the bullshit.

Exactly....I have been watching her videos, and can't believe the crazy hype. She is not evolving as a guitar player, she is regurgitating the same handful of licks, and goofy noodling she been doing since she started. She never floors me with some incredible solo. I am always left wanting something amazing, but I am continually disappointed. This is what I refer to as the "Taylor Swift" Syndrome. They find a pretty girl that can "kind-of" play guitar, and then her team makes sure they insert her onto as many stages, or events as humanly possible. The video with her on stage with Christone Kingfish Ingram is very painful to watch, and showcases her very limited ability on the instrument. More people need to speak up, and hold her feet to the fire. It's great she has a nice personality, but it's a sham to elevate her as the next Clapton, or SRV. I agree, it's time to cut the BS...

most of the festival performances seem to be on KZread, I have watched her killing it live for years, what are you talking about. she is always playing.

I just learned of Grace's talents and was searching for videos when I came across this. We're going to hear a lot from her very soon, I think.

Grace is absolutely phenomenal, especially when one considers that she is only 17 years old. On another video, someone said that the song she did was nowhere near as good as a well known and seasoned guitarist. My reply was simply, "and how good was that very experienced guitarist at the age of 17?" People tend to forget that when she is in her late thirties or forties, she would have improved exponentially with experience and just how good will she become if she is already so accomplished at her tender age of 17? For Grace, the world is at her feet right now and I expect great things from this young lady. So should you!

She's beautiful ❤️ amazing person she is

She's great. Her technique with the pick/fingers and the way she slides in and out of notes reminds me of Chris Buck's style.

In an old instructional video with Danny Gatton (circa 80's), he taught his different picking styles and exercises and quite literally said the same thing about sitting if front of the television with his guitar unplugged and practice those picking exercises...

This. This right here. Yes. YES. I love to see this. She's great, good personality, clearly a smart woman. Can't wait to see more of her. Cheers, mate!

My guitar teacher told me that way back over 30yrs ago in the UK. Always have a guitar nearby and practice chords and scales while watching movies or TV! Great advice.

Shes awesome! Great attitude and player. Hopefully she inspires the new generation to pick up a guitar.

I feel grace on the "nice perm" bit. I grew my hair out and suddenly if started to get super curly and now it looks like I have a constant perm lol. Grace you have so far you will go, keep up the great work !

Awesome vid and so refreshing that youth is still influenced by the great masters of the past. Blues, funk, soul, classic rock, hell ya! Plus playing an SG🤘 Next interview, Taj please😎

Just found the young lady on my feed today. She is gifted.

YOUR HEART IS PUMPING!!!!!

That special sounds awesome. Love the p blue

definitely a WIN!

I've been following Grace on KZread for years, so it's great to see this video! It's been amazing to watch her picking and rhythm chops develop.

I love being the rhythm guitar to a player with skills like that. Makes it so fun to just sit back watch the wide. Makes me wonder if that’s what guys like Glenn Frey felt watching Felder and Walsh play

I love the SG love! My favorite guitar for the same reasons.

grace to the grace 💪💣💎

So Great she is writing songs VS just doing KZread of her shredding. I hope she stays grounded and is successful for a long time.

From what people tell me, she could play anything. And sing like a bird. So your music is very striking to me. Love seeing young people make amazing new music. Keep on rockin! Great video Tyler.
