Sophia Bass Returns to Mason

If you missed Sophia Bass in April you'll have the chance to see this excellent local performer again tonight.

Sophia Bass is coming again tonight, from 8 to 11 p.m., at Damon's Grill. You should head over there, as Bass is not to be missed.

You can hear more on her MySpace page or through iTunes.

Sophia Bass Performs Pt. 2

At this very moment I am in the JC Jazzman's listening to Sophia Bass, a talented high school senior.

Part two of Sophia Bass's performance begins with a brand new song, "Why Do We Wait" which she wrote "yesterday." For a completely new song it is very polished and it is apparent that Bass really knows what she's doing.

Bass is doing another cover and playing it excellently, it's apparent that she can handle her own work and others' without a problem.

She's now playing "Someone Else," a song with "a lot of picking" which she is doing very well, the sound is excellent.

If you missed Sophia Bass, she'll be here again, this time with her whole band, at the Mason Damon's Grill on May 3, 8-11 p.m. My advice is that you head over there next time she's on campus, Sophia Bass is not to be missed.

Here are some recordings from her performance. [Recordings redacted at request of artist.]

Sophia Bass Performs Pt. 1 [LIVE]

I'm here right now in the JC Jazzman's listening to Sophia Bass perform her own song "Take Me Away" and I have to wonder what exactly she is doing here. Admittedly, this is the first Tuesday Jams I've been to, but she seems way too good to be in this hole. Especially with "Discovery Channel" filtering in from the WGMU booth next door.

No joke she is really excellent. I wish I had been here earlier because Sophia Bass is a pleasure to listen to.

She's got a pretty good drummer, Charles Mitchel, with her too and he integrates well into her music.

Bass is really good, the tones and the melody are all excellent and soothing. There's a great rhythm, you can see some of the people here nodding or foot-tapping along with it. The song lyrics are really good as well.

She's ended up the first half with an excellent Iron & Wine cover.
