has anyone ever heard of her?

she's a new orleans musician that does a "One woman show" using multiple instruments and a loop pedal.

Quote

inspired by a one-man-puppet-show (Blair Thomas, Chicago), in which the puppeteer played multiple characters and the drums, Theresa overcame the financial impracticality of touring Europe with a band by learning to play with a loop pedal. She began by looping just her violin, voice, and guitar. But, wanting to create a richer sound live, Theresa began thinking about adding another loop pedal and more instruments. As a result, Theresa currently travels with two loop pedals, which she uses simultaneously, along with her record player, drums, dulcimer, guitar, and violin.

I love this song

Reminds me a bit of this guy I saw a little while ago named Owen Pallet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Pallett) He uses a loop pedal to create a full band sound. In his live shows is also that he mixes in a visual aspect, the one I saw had a woman on stage performing a shadow puppet show which was neat

Some fucko thought it was funny to heckle him tho about the fact he was using a loop pedal and would scream "PLAY THE MUSIC YOURSELF FAAAG" or something after every song
