She Plays

About Me



A vast array of picturesque soundscapes. Distinctly avant-garde lyrical jaunts. These concepts, presented by artistic female identities each with a unique voice and vision, mingle to make SHE PLAYS the thinking person’s perfect aural journey.

"Let’s get feminine! Feminine!" this is the catch-cry of Dave Hammer gone girl crazy well past the time of acceptable teenage lust. That said, the lust of the eponymous rock producer is an insatiable one for finely crafted songs. From airy proto-ballads to dirty fuzz rock and back, the dazzling gamut of genres that the SHE PLAYS project moves through ensures that there is something going on for all and sundry.

Indulge in the vulnerability and dissipate into the energy that is at once endearing and secretive.
