"Not
many people can be good enough to surpass their gender in their
art, Lizzy is that exception. A powerful player, sexy and outstanding
performer, she is way beyond the "female bass player"
status. She is easy going, open minded and hard working but yet,
can still manage to hang with Egotistical Dirty Rockstars. A great
role model for upcoming musicians."
-Charlie
Drown, vocalist, songwriter |
"Lizzy
Daymont is a musician of extraordinary ability. Great tone, solid
feel, and comfortable in any genre. A consummate player I enthusiastically
recommend."

Paul Speer,
Emmy award winning producer, composer, musician, engineer |
"Lizzy
is a terrific bassist - great lines, great sounds, most important;
an excellent sense of what and when to play. I had a chance to 'steal'
some of her bass lines myself."
- Tony
Levin, bassist with Peter Gabriel, King Crimson, and many others |
"Lizzy
is a fantastic bass player, and I don't have to be Tony Levin to tell
you that, or for you to believe me when I say it. Some players in
this world are very good at being Note Activators when they pick up
an instrument; the very best players combine the ability to Activate
Notes Correctly with prodigious musicality. Lizzy is one
of these; and the difference between these two groups is gigantic."
- Shawn
“Yogi” Farley Guitarist, songwriter and vocalist |
"Working
with Lizzy has always been easy and effortless. She has always been
professional and her capabilities as a musician are extremely rare
if not unmatched. She has helped us out in many situations where time
was an issue, sometimes performing entire sets with only one rehearsal
and performing them flawlessly. Highly recommended!"
- Dan Teisan, guitarist and songwriter
for Late
September Dogs |
"Lizzy
has done a great job on the Susan Robkin recording project; not
only as a bassist, but also as a musical contributor in the broadest
sense."

Elliott
Randall, producer, Steely Dan guitarist and worldwide touring
performer |
"Lizzy Daymont is an outstanding bass player with an instinctive
feel for what is musically appropriate. These talents, combined
with her great attitude and vibe, make her a musician who would
be an indispensable asset to any recording or live situation".

“Of
all the bassists I’ve worked with, Lizzy is one of the best
by far. Give her any bass part or bass run for your tune and she’ll
nail it. She is what I’d call ‘every guitarist’s
bassist.’ I always feel confident knowing that Lizzy’s
bass is right there laying down the foundation – the groove,
the rhythm – for my solos to fly. She’s just spectacular.
If I ever put together another musical project, Lizzy would always
be my first choice to play bass in it.”

Primo Pulanco, former guitarist and songwriter for Lyranthe,
Seattle progressive metal band |
"Lizzy
has been an amazing substitute bassist for us. The band doesn't miss
a beat when she fills in, and it's as if we've been playing together
for years! No looking over our shoulders or cueing transitions, Mister
Miyagi can play up to 40 song nights and she's always spot on. Lizzy's
an amazing talent and we get lots of compliments from the crowd. If
we didn't already have a great, well-established bassist, we'd hire
her in a second."
- Mister
Miyagi, Seattle 80's cover band |
“…Lizzy
Daymont had great tone, nice and thick. This bassist locks onto
the drummer, never missing a beat. The melody lines reinforce this
player’s professionalism. This Lady is living proof that girls
don't have to just strum acoustic guitars and sing boring folk songs!”
