Holly Bowling - Beautiful Jam piano adaptation
Forums:
This pianist had her YouTube video out for a long time with a solo piano adaptation of the 6/18/74 Eyes, but got she picked up recently by official scene, did a whole album and had a release party at TXR (many may know, was news to me). There's video at the link of her performance at the release party of an adaptation of the infamous Beautiful Jam from 2/18/71. Having listened to it dozens of times, hearing it faithfully written out and performed on piano is goosebump-inducing. Definitely worth seven minutes.

She has *two* CD's out (at least what I saw on the merch table). one is GD tunes and the other Phish. The cuts are all labeled as specific shows, for example 'Half-Step 6-23-74".
Got to see HB open for / sit in with the Tom Hamilton American Babies at one of the Asbury Park 'Jams On The Sand' series. It was torrential rain that evening, so they had the show inside the Convention Hall lobby / boardwalk / grand concourse. Small yet enthusiastic audience. I was just a few feet away watching Her play the electric piano, and was really impressed.
My thoughts were "Here's someone who has practiced a whole bunch for many years, and is also blessed with Tons of musical talent." She's also Super-Cute
