Default Tal Wilkenfeld



Little Aussie bass/battler Tal is only 24, going on 13. (born Sydney 2/12/1986)
She's only released one album of her own so it's early days.
The entire album 'transformation', was recorded in just two days.

She has played with The Allman Brothers, Chick Corea, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour,
Buddy Guy, Steve Vai, Prince, Slash, Sting and Billy Gibbons, among many others
and is a regular player in Jeff Beck's band

In fact as this short clip shows she has Jeff playing bass for her on occasion.
It's probably easier to list all the contemporary jazz greats that she hasn't played with.

I'm loving the way she beams back at Beck at the end of her short solo here



This is a live television broadcast of Serendipity with her band, from the album 'transformation'.
