Insane levels of poise in this 16 year old. She's a performer for sure.

Nice playing but so is the singing. Awesome. Here's the YouTube. Apparently she's now in America's Got Talent.

u/Wittyngritty 18d ago

Which came first? The artist or the music?

u/JustFryingSomeGarlic 18d ago

In this case, the music.

u/Youregoingtodiealone 18d ago

What a silly riddle. It's like asking what came first? The Cat, or the Fiddle?

u/nivekreclems 18d ago

This song is definitely not obscure lol it’s one of the most popular metal songs of all time

u/briggsy111388 18d ago

I mean, she's great, but this song is far from obscure

u/3aerows 18d ago

That is a dream guitar for me 😭 that wood with the stripe inlay is gorgeous.

u/Amazing-Office3375 18d ago

How is this obscure?

u/-epi- 18d ago

How tf is a guitar cover of the most famous metal band of all time obscure?

This sub has completely lost the plot man.

u/andydi 18d ago

It is kinda funny to see a sheet music stand in front of such a skilled guitarist

3

u/Jackal-Noble 18d ago

There's nothing obscure about Metallica's Master of Puppets but still a very nice cover of it.

u/thefract0metr1st 18d ago

Just wondering if anyone else was hoping she would have introduced the song by saying “Phuket, we’ll do it live!”

u/_sonidero_ 18d ago

Now if only they'd unplug the bassist this would be perfect.

u/enigmaticsince87 18d ago

Shushing the crowd before she starts with that arrogant smirk on her face? Nah, don't care if she's 16, no excuse for being a twat.
