    //About me:
    What’s up! I am a musician and I love music. I have played the bass for about 15 years. I’ve played for a few gospel groups in the area such as TruePraise and Afellowship. I’ve had other privileges of playing for: @VeshawnMitchell @GenetterBradley @MauretteBrownClark @LemmieBattles of the Chicago Mass Choir just to name a few. I’ve also opened for @VanessaBellArmstrong @IsaiahDThomas @NeilRoberson. I am a mere bass player among very talented bass players and musicians. I am always willing to learn, after all, that’s what life is about.

    What an amazing moment in history. She played one of her simpler songs. I've seen her work hard and tear up some songs that lifelong musicians would choke on. Add that smile, killer. We will see more of Ellen in the future, no doubt.

    I lost my musician ( guitar player) husband years ago. For a long time it was hard for me to listen to music and there’s been pockets of time where I have not as soon as I heard Alan music has been revived in my heart my husband’s bass player gave me a love for the bass. After hearing Ellen for the first time tonight (May 14, 2023) after many tears, watching her videos and watching this commentary and her on Steve Harvey, I feel completely musically revitalized I think God for showing me to watch all this, and thank you, Ellen!❤

    I'm an old and sometimes tired drummer. I was beginning to lose my faith in true musicianship with what they call music today. When I came across Ellen, my faith candle was reignited. Her manner and presence is infectious, not to mention her amazing skill on the bass. With her inspiration, I bought new heads and sticks and found my groove again. God bless Ellen!

    Thank you so much for featuring this Steve Harvey segment. I’ve been watching Ellen’s channel for many months, she has the Bootsy image in her intro but I never knew about or saw this show appearance. So special. She was so moved by these legends. Her dad was clearly also moved and I encourage anyone to visit her channel. Watching the respectful joyful vibe they share is equal to the bass. Oh yeah, she played here a simpler song, written for her by Yousician. I sort of wish she’d done a montage of her favorite funk and rock classics, the crowd would have gone wild.

    Thanks BigSwole for reviewing this! I've been following Ellen's channel for a couple years now, and I had no idea she was on Steve Harvey's show. Pretty cool that he researched ahead of time and got Bootsy and EW&F on live to give her a well-deserved shout out! I got a little choked up myself!!😢😄 She has come a *LONG* way in just a few short years, playing with the likes of Steve Vai, Pentatonix, Yoyoka Soma, Davie504, and more! She is already a force to be reckoned with in the world of bass musicians.😍🎵🎶👍

Her music heroes "KNEW HER NAME" and said she was good! Fantastic, Ellen will go far and carry the music torch forward! Ellen is a treasure, growing up appreciating "REAL" music. I would pay money to go see her play, her enthusiasm, appreciation and sheer talent moves an audience, we can feel the love in her smile and talent. ty great video from SE Texas Bear :)

    Never saw this before. Loved the surprise video meet Steve arranged with Bootsy and EW&F. Already knew what a great and caring guy Steve is, but how quickly he got up and sat next to Ellen to comfort her when she teared up, proved it once again. Been following Ellen for a couple of years now and, as many, am very curious to see where her musical path will lead her in life. Chapeau to both her parents for raising a happy, smart, respectful and talented little girl.

She's really is just a phenomenal bass player. She's like 11 or 12 now and can literally play anything on bass. I sincerely believe that #EllenPlaysBass is the next #TimHenson just on Bass.

    Some facts: Ellen used to listen to her Dad playing guitar since the crib.
    She is endorsed by many companies, her Bass, gear, strings etc. Mayone's from Poland was the last one she signed. And she got a sweet red Bass with preamp and headphones to start.
    Her dad is a virtuoso with the guitar and teach Ellen without being boring.
    The song that Ellen just played, it's Ellen Groove, tailor-made for her by the people on Yousician, they did it because the owner was so impressed by Ellen for nailing all hard songs in the APP.

    Oh yeah, growing up in that era the music was so great. It was the Jackson 5ive and all the Motown music being played on the radio and then when I started playing bass it E,W&F and many of the other great bands of that day. I came to appreciate it all. From R&B to Southern Rock to Classical Music. I really enjoyed it all. I first came across this young girl’s video and I was so amazed at her control and speed. She’s playing real music 4-sure. Her dad really introduced her to an era of music where the musicians had fun, but really was serious about the music. Also what Bootsy said about all the musicians playing together in the studio was good to hear.

Earth wind & fire , Elton and a few others are nearly as popular as they were back then. An amazing era for music. I couldn't have been born at a better time given my love for that music scene, and you we're far behind me really. Kind Regards -Dan-

She's already so recognized and endorsed, it's clear she's going places. She's polite, not full of herself, humble, and for 9 yrs old, carries herself well. She's going far in this crazy world, will shine her light bright and carry the torch of all the past greats.

    Thanks, Big for your thoughtful comments - I only discovered Ellen yesterday and as a lifelong gigging musician (guitar) for over 50 years and having seen many child phenoms Ellen is the most natural, talented and lovable one of them all. I played for several years with a girl drummer who went on to play with Blue Man Group and Celine Dion (how's that for diversity) and she had that natural "pocket" feel too, which we both hung out in ;-) She had just graduated college so she was a little older than Ellen, but since it was 1990 when we started, she was definitely ahead of her time. Finally, all the emotions and feelings you mentioned I also feel, and I just can't get enough of that giggle. If you haven't seen it, she was invited to jam onstage with Steve Vai, and her resume is growing!
