She has the 'Floyd' in her.
Sep 18^th, 2019 at 7:15pm

I never thought I would ever hear someone with that same essence in their music that the Pink Floyd had.

But after listening to Tash Sultana (especially her 'Synergy' at the Californian Roots Festival -2018) and a few of her other efforts.
I can't but feel that she 'has it'.
It's not as pronounced as Pink Floyd, as she is a Solo Artist.
But if she had the right - Band Members, then I can only imagine how much she would expand her talent.

It must be all the mixed blood Wink

Are we listening to the same artist? I could name at least five bands more like Pink Floyd then this girl. Not bagging her per se, its interesting, but progressive rock? Not really.

Never heard of her, so I did a search and watched a couple of her videos.

Apart from her use of Fender guitars with a lot of delay, I can't see anything "Pink Floydish" about her.

Not something I would normally listen to, but good luck to her - certainly more of a musician than Tay Tay.

Sounds like she has an Aussie accent too.

Shes Aussie. I just don't see the Pink Floyd thing. I fail to see how she could be more Floyd than say Radiohead, Muse, Dream Theater (at least to me) and the other band I just got put onto is Porcupine Tree.

Hell I would even regard Tool as having more Floyd in them this this girl.

Agreed, completely.

Just Googled her a bit more - yes, she's from Melbourne.

Anyway, there is a tiny bit of a Pink Floyd vibe in this video from about the 20 second mark to the 50 second mark.

The lights, and the Great Gig in The Sky ... ish vocal in the background.

Look. My first post emphasised that she has 'the Floyd' in her. Not about her in competition with others. Especially when I also said that being a Solo Artist might be what stops her from really progressing in that 'style' (which is not an easy style to attain). Yes I agree with your choices of others being 'More Floyd' than her (except the last one, only a tool would think that Roll Eyes

).

But to see it in a Solo Artist, who is raw and fresh, like Tash is just amazing. The potential is unbelievable! Being a female from Australia - she might be more 'Professional' about her journey too. I wish her the best.

I think she is the most gorgeous of things too.
