    After being in the music business, both education and performance, for over 65 years, and still gigging, I applaud these youngsters!! Anyone who can trade 4/4 measures with 7/8 measures and then transition into a 12/8 shuffle is doing way more than I did at their age. Bravo!!

      Just find an instrument and improvise~> Its Just hand placement and motor skills!! Just try one finger at a time till you get them all to work, like you want them!!
      More you try to think the harder it is! So when you Improvise, you { listen to hear first thing, next you feel the music & last you think about it}..
      That is improvising You just make it up as you go along!
      If you make a mistake doing it!~? You may want to try to make that same mistake again because it was a cool part of what you just did!! Because it all fits in anyway!
      Like with this~> OPEN NOTE, FRETTED NOTES, OPEN NOTE, FRETTED NOTES!! BACK AND FORTH!! ONE finger at a time!
      With it, a whole different Galaxy Of Music, not many have traveled too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only two people that I know of & I am one of them!~
      With it, it is impossible to hit the wrong note with that technique! And it is endless in what you can do with it! Music is like going to Outer Space~ It is endless in its place & space~
      With a Bass Guitar you can use them all the way up and down the neck! ELLEN^^^ With a regular guitar the lower case strings you can do the same.. With the higher case strings you can go up to the 12th fretted.. To go higher on the neck, you need to jump up and down the strings on the higher case strings!! To OPEN NOTE, FRETTED NOTE.. It all
      Drop~D key you have more of the in higher case to work with.. Key of E for your tunings, you go to the 12th fretted like I stated above^^ and beyond~
      There is two types of Guitar players!~> One plays someone else's music by memorizing the sheet music~ The other is in Creation Mode all the time!! By just improvising with there play!
      They play by Ear alone~ They don't look much at what they are doing when they place their fingers down to sound!`
      I learn both ways And I found my Brain is more of being wired to improvise~ With my music~ I just love coming up with something new all the time on the fly~ Try it you will like it~
      You just have to pay for a little higher end guitar that sounds great & {stays in tune}. Or it will suck for you!~ Like 800.00 dollar one that is new! You can get a used one too for less!
      It takes "five years" for a guitar to be broken in when it is a new one.. So as you get better at it by playing everyday!! So will your guitar get better in sound every day!~ It is a win win deal!`

    We know the bass & drummer are top class, but I love the the solo. Drifted in a Page way and gave the song a final seal of approval. One thing about Jimmy Page when playing is he rarely ever played a songs solo the same way twice. He could wander off and still hold the song together. I should also say the lady singing was awesome.

      They all pulled it off amazingly well but I get what you are saying as far as trying to cover Page as he is a very improvisational player. Thing is he wasn't at this level at this kids age and he did nail his sound and feel and pretty much spot on to the studio version which even Page never did live. Granted Page was never trying to. He seemed to use his live performances to experiment.

    They are all rockstars but Ellen is like next level. She not only plays tight and accurate but she is having so much fun and it seems so natural. I am excited to see what happens when she gets into originals and writes her own bass lines. She just has it all even being so tiny the bass dwarfs her. She has made it difficult for anyone to complain that they struggle with guitar or bass because their hands are too small.

    Damn, just found this. Yoyoka and Ellen performing together was bound to happen. The level of talent among these young musicians is just ridiculous. Everytime I hear Yoyoka drumming on a Zep song it's crazy how "Bonham-esque" her playing feels. And little Ellen just grooving like there's no tomorrow. Also, I always felt that a female talented singer like this girl works great covering Zep songs. And of course excellent guitar playing here as well.

And on top of that they have charisma to boot! I’m blown away. The future of music is bright if we can just get these 4 in the popular music world.

      Jimmy, I hope this makes you even happier (I am a Yoyoka fan) ...
      That was the first time Yoyoka (drums 12yo) had ever played with Ellen (bass 9yo), Eva (vocals) and Mateo (guitar). Ellen had rehearsed twice with Mateo but only once with Eva. That session was in Las Vegas. Yoyoka was visiting from Hokaido, Japan with her Dad.
      The audio was one, continuous, unedited take, mixed by Ellen's Dad. YoYoka always wants one continuous audio, and preferably one video, take (she uses 3 static cameras at home). She plays live a _lot,_ so playing in one take is normal for her.
      Yoyoka and Ellen later recorded a Q&A with Hovak, Ellen's Dad. Hovak set the scene, then asked Yoyoka and Ellen to explain what they thought about the session. Yoyoka understands, but does not speak much English. Yoyoka said something like, she _"caught the mood and the atmosphere"_ in the room, she _"was kinda catching all the energy"_ then she _"knew what she can do for the group":_ _ELLEN & YOYOKA Q&A_ czcams.com/video/bcgr3iBn8gs/video.html (12m7s to 15m46s)

      Depending on your musical tastes, Yoyoka _might_ have something: czcams.com/users/kaneaikaneaivideos or czcams.com/users/kaneaikaneaiplaylists

      Maybe her: _Yoyoka Drum Cover_ playlist czcams.com/play/PLdRIgHiqkWWbf6r83PokACwV5gqIVv9vs.html
      She co-wrote "Sparkling" (first track?) I like it, but it's not to everyone's taste, It's quite "Dream Theatre meets Rush"

      _YOYOKA's 12th Birthday Session_ czcams.com/play/PLdRIgHiqkWWahmjBhCmEMPWsK8rIFZZBc.html
