I Performed for GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS in San Francisco

[@EllenPlaysBass]

Thank you Golden State Warriors for inviting me to perform during your game. It was my first visit to San Francisco and everything was amazingly fun. Hope you all will enjoy this short vlog!

[@factotumted]

I wish you could see the smile on my face. Love you kiddo ❤

[@ramtigerfalcon8387]

Oh yeah? 😮 Getting called to large multi-billion dollar organizations to perform for HUGE crowds of people? I'd say you've made it lil chick but, shessh 9 is a long ways to go. Good luck , and stay in light as long as you can. Much love from the east coast

[@ItWentChunkaCHUNK]

I hope you enjoyed our lovely city by the bay! Thanks for rockin' the Chase Center!

Masks?? When was that? No masks in Germany for 2 years...

[@bertjones3010]

Curious as to when you made this trip - this year?

[@terrybenthall6192]

A smile that lights up the world. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@MrRickB61-2]

No Doubt 🧐

[@peterchesko9537]

remarkable for sure!

[@joshuafreedman7703]

Ellen and Victor Wooten. There are probably others, but these two are the bass players come to mind just now you always see smiling! 😁

[@stephenmiller4948]

I am sooooooooooo proud of Ellen!! When I was 16, I played bass in front of the largest crowd I have played before - 10 people! 10 years ago, I was blabbing to someone about my bucket list including wanting to play before a crowd and the guy I was talking to said, "Hey, we need a bass player tonight!" I replied, "I haven't practiced in over 10 years! I could never do that!" He insisted. We went to the back room of this joint and he showed me how to play the song he wanted me to play. It included tapping. I had never tapped before! Well, long story short, I played in front of 100 people that evening and somehow pulled it off. Now, I look at Ellen and where she is at after just three years of watching her. Man! She is so awesome! If I could be like Ellen, I would in a heartbeat!!! Ellen Rocks!!!!

[@dronespace]

Great story 😊

What a wonderful family . Ellen is a little angel .

[@debhart4302]

Thanks for the smiles.

[@yuvgotubekidding]

The genuine joy that’s always on her face is so uplifting. What a human. God bless this child.

[@mrnate2468]

its easy to support a kid in what they want to do for a little while...your continued support over the years is beyond amazing. i know Ellen's parents are very proud of her, but they should also be proud of themselves

[@brheinfeldt]

Hovak, thank you for being the kind of father that you are! Joyful, nurturing and time conscious with Ellen and her God-given talent and obvious love of music! In a world full of bad fathers and fatherless homes, it bring peace and joy to my heart to see the way you and Ellen interact with each other, and how she looks up to you... it's... as it should be!!&! Ellen, your smile and your talent are inspiring, not only to other kids, but to many of us older kids, too!!&! May God's blessings and His favor be with your family!!&! ❤🎉😊

[@wesleybushby4858]

Makes me happy seeing Ellen given the opportunities, and she going after them. Well made video, and a big thanks to her supportive parents.

[@billr.5808]

Ellen's has to have the proudest parents ever! Watching her growing up into a wonderful well rounded young lady, with her music, art and other interests! And all of which she very much excels at! Very nice! 🤩

As she was playing, you could see the love and enjoyment she has for music. She has a special gift, thank you for sharing it with the world.

[@dewardroy6531]

Miss Ellen, thank you for having us along on your amazing continuing journey. Naches!

Ellen has the most beautiful smile of any child I have ever seen. Her happiness makes me happy. These days happiness is one of the most important aspects of life.

Ellen, you stuck the landing on that performance. Really big crowd and you played like you were at home with the family. I see much bigger crowds in your future.❤

[@1vjsr]

God! How could you NOT love that smile???

[@_officerK]

We love you our little big star 💪🏼

[@ivanfrantz2158]

You must have rhythm within you to play like that and Ellen has loads of rhythm. Keep it up girl you are a Star!

[@Sifodyas1]

Ellen. Your family brings a tear to my eye. Your bass playing, another. And the love behind it all a third. Keep having fun and keep up the good work!

[@cdg-hzg]

What moves me the most from watching Ellen's videos is not her playing. Granted, her playing moves me immensely. She's so talented. What moves me the most is your family. How you support and encourage Ellen and the pure joy you all exhibit in any activities you undertake with her. As a family. I love you all. I'll be following you all for as long as I can. -- Great performance.

[@joelvinson]

My dad used to let me skip school one day a year and he'd take me all over San Francisco like this! This made me so happy! Way to go, Ellen!

[@KingOFuh]

Ellen can play songs even more technically challenging. Still, she really showed her ability to play perfect funk bass in front of a large crowd. And only at age umpteen.

[@LakesideLofi]

So rad! The Stingray sounded awesome. 🤘🏻🙋🏼‍♂🤙🏻

[@rightuppercut1426]

As always I was smiling throughout the entire video. So young and, with the help of mom and dad, already so professional. From outfits and styling, to video footage and editing and everything else just top notch. Nice to see the family seized the opportunity to go see the sights in San Francisco. Thanks for taking us all along. Your performance was perfect.

[@Elise10000]

Great virtual trip to San Francisco. I'm glad to see it still has the same energy and of course Ellen adds to it. Ellen you are phenom. I do love the Ellen song Yousician wrote for you. But I don't think it matches your skill level any more. Suggestion? Roll out some of your classic funk, R&B or rock riffs, the crowd will really respond when they recognize them. And at least one of those insanely complex Heavy Metal riffs you just recorded. You are awesome ❤ The song/band names on big screen would be cool too, the parents will also get into it

[@davidhopkins4352]

Right On! Much health and happiness to you and your family!

Ellen you truly inspire me. I'm a older person that played bass as a teenager. I was never as good as you, but I loved the sound and rhythm of the bass. I haven't played now for for over 45 years. Because of you and your dad I'm going to pickup my bass and learn to play again. Keep up the great music 🎶 ❤

Nun verfolge ich seit über 10 Jahren die Musik und das Lächeln von Karolina Protsenko. Das Lächeln und ihr Talent hat ihr in den letzten 2 Jahren, laut Wikipedia, über 1,5 Milliarden Zugriffe beschert. Sie ist jetzt 15 Jahre jung. Ich beobachte dich seit ca. 2 Jahren. Du bist genauso talentiert und verbreitetst genauso viel Freude mit deinem Lächeln. Deine Aufrufe bestätigen dass du genau so beliebt bist wie Karolina und denselben Erfolg erreichen wirst. Zum Nachdenken: Gemeinsam ist man noch stärker.
