she’s from Seattle, WA and her accompanying guitarist may have been from band Whiskeytown, she had long drape of dark hair, would have been annoying drone one-tempo music except her voice was husky and twang-accented and quite gorgeous, her guitaring was rather simple but his was interesting, quite enjoyed despite derision of music store snobs’ table
