Ida Nielson has been holding down the low end for the last 6 years of Prince's life. She is currently working on a new CD, her new single “ Rock the Bass “ was released by March 30, 2018.
Her first single “SHOWMEWHATUGOT” was hand picked personally by Prince to be “Purple pick of the week” on TIDAL when it was released.
You can book her through one of my dearest friends, Isabella Pfeifer and her agency based in Vienna bellaconcerts. I know this classy, from top to toe music lady since many many years. I remember when she started spinning the coolest rare funk, soul grooves with her awesome vinyl collection and blew away all those guys. We met again in many places all around the globe but mostly enjoyed times together with friends in our beloved big apple, New York City.
This photo was one of our most special girlie moments. I was 8 months pregnant. We also organised one of the first acid jazz parties in Vienna, I actually never made it because I couldn't leave my then home NYC.
I am so proud of her because she worked hard to reach this level, opening such a fabulous agency with so many smashing, pure quality artists.

I was super excited when she told me the other day that Ida Nielson will come to Vienna and of course she offered me a VIP guest ticket once again like this incredible concert.

This time it will be at Porgy & Bess in Vienna
So, Who is Ida?
You can find her details HERE
Ever since 2010 when he invited her to Minnesota for a jam, Ida Nielsen was holding down the low end for the legendary artist PRINCE (until his very sad and untimely passing in April 2016).
The funk was happening at the jam and shortly after she joined his band “The New Power Generation” and went on an almost two year long world tour including numerous TV shows as well as sold out concerts. In 2013 the power house 4 piece rockband “3rdeyegirl” was thrown in the mix creating history with memorable concerts and recordings.
Ida describes playing with music legend Prince as “a huge gift” and as “the most magical musical journey ever, and an on-going learning experience beyond all imagination.” She says: “I am eternally grateful for having had this precious time and I will do everything I can to move on with everything he taught me.”

She is an amazing bassplayer. From her work you can obvious here why Prince asked her to join.. With playing she fit's right into the Rhonda Smith, Larry Graham row :) .... I like her slapping and popping a lot !! great to read your post, thanks !!

Love her work, love her sound.... Must admit haven't follow her much lately, but thanks for reminding me of such a great musician... Steemit opens doors (again) to listening to some fine music :) ....Steemit is already a success for me (re)discovering so much great musicians... !!

Totally likewise !!! Thank you very much !!
I saw that you post a lot of Bass stuff....are you playing yourself?
Yes I play bass myself, it's the greatest instrument there is ;) for me... Although I am not that great bassplayer ;) ... I manage to play the songs and thing's I would like to play, so that's great. Now on Steemit I caught myself studying again with songs I see posted on Steemit with 'fellow' musicians... It's a great community with for me a big bonus that I also got to play a bit more than I used to the last few years :) ..
She's good but she's no Sean Yseult!
IT'S THAT BASS played by those fab women!!!!
Talented and HOT!
