- Jamming With Testament Full Video! I had a blast playing with the legendary band Testament on September, Friday the 13th. What an honor that I could share the stage with true Heavy Metal Legends Eric Peterson, Alex Skolnick, Chuck Billy, Steve Di Giorgio and Chris Dovas!!!
Once my AGT finished, now that I was free, I was able to go to the Testament concert in Las Vegas! I’ve never been to a heavy metal concert so I thought it’ll be a great opportunity! I texted Eric Peterson and we thought it would be really fun if I could jam a song together with the band. He picked a really fast old-school thrash metal song "Curse of the Legions of Death" for me and he even showed me the riffs and taught me his solo so I can play that together with Alex Skolnick on stage! This song has the fastest alternate picking speed I have ever played and that is the exact challenge I need so I was very much excited to just go and have fun with my friends in Testament. Once I reached the venue, Alex Skolnick met us outside and took us to the backstage dressing room where I got to meet Chuck Billy, Chris Dovas and Steve Di Giorgio for the first time. It was great hanging out with them and also meeting the amazing Testament crew and family! Just before the song I was waiting to join the band, very excited but still a bit nervous! I actually didn’t have a rehearsal with them but I knew that I was with them and they’re all like family to me so I wasn’t worried. Once I went on stage and started playing, it was a blast! They were all taking such good care of me and made me feel very comfortable! I was so excited to jam the solo with Alex Skolnick! It was awesome! I also never played with a singer before and that was also a new experience! What an honor that the first singer I jammed with is Chuck Billy! Once the song finished, I was very, very happy to have just played with Testament and was just enjoying it all. It was the best. Everyone really made me feel at home and that was really special. Once I left the stage, I was still hanging at the back to watch the rest of the concert which they did amazingly! It was just something watching them play! Once they finished, we went back to the dressing room. It was really great hanging and talking with them and before we left, they all signed the dressing room door sign and gave it to me! That’s so special and I’m going to frame it!! They’re the kindest people. It was amazing hanging with them before the show, jamming with them on stage, and just talking after! They really made me feel so comfortable and I’m really, really honoured with everything they did. I’ll always remember what happened at my first ever metal concert!!! Thank you so much Testament for such a memorable day!!! 💖💖💖💖💖

Thank you to all the band member's of TESTAMENT for giving Maya the encouragement ❤
Teacher, "What did you do this summer?" Kid, "My family went to Six Flags". Maya, "I rocked out with one of the legendary trash bands ever". 🤘
11 years old and a better resume than 99.9% of people that ever pick up a guitar.
Probably 99.999%

So cool! Trading leads with Alex Skolnick wow! What a superstar. The coolest thing I can say about my relationship with Testament is that Chuck Billy did a stage dive and landed on me in 1987. You've got me beat by a million miles! :) \m/\m/
An amazing feat in itself, good sir!
! que valor de esa niña, que aplomo!. Tocando junto a estos clásicos del metal.Impresionante
Congratulations Maya! Was eagerly waiting for this. Thank you and ❤ you.
Maya, you were on fire with the legends.
The best part is your aura is going to attract a lot of non metal heads into the fold of this amazing metal community.

I didnt even like Metal until I heard Maya play it. I love Maya! she rocks!
Congrats Maya😊!
Loved it. Glad you got to do this and thanks for the great performance!
Never stop progressing!
Unbiased metal heads would know how great a band Testament is, although I did see Megadeth perform live, I wish I could see Testament play live. Return to Serenity is my all time greatest metal ballad also one of the greatest riffs ever played in my opinion. Great to see Maya play with such legends. I hope people like Maya bring back Rock/Metal to the mainstream like in the 80’s.
SHRED THAT SOLO MAYA!!! GREAT STUFF!
Oh, Maya, thank you for posting this. You did so AWESOME! You did the band so proud. Absolutely incredible performance.
Your performance is awesome maya.
Que bacan saludos desde Perú

Congratulations 🎉
Maya... I am blessed to see you little girl... let the new generation also get taste of indian classical music and let the Classical and metal Survive through your efforts... you have given it a new life... ❤❤❤
Hi from Malaysia. From AGT I came to know you. I am previously not a fan of metal music because too noisy. After seeing you in AGT changed me. I love Indian sitar carnatic music. Seeing Maya playing carnatic music with guitar is new and innovative. The metal musicians of US are quite friendly.
Just WOW Maya, I'm so happy for you 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I love that she never stops smiling!!!!
This team is great for encouraging a young kid Maya!
Super awesome Maya! You did really great!! I'm so stoked for you!!
Wow amazing Maya !!!
Maya, you're Mother Saraswati Incarnated. Music flows through you like river Saraswati in Ancient times. You are an old soul born in a new body. You go. Lord Shiva is with you. ❤❤❤
Hindus need to stop saying this crap...she is not a goddess, and she is not an avtar of anyone..she is a little girl with a whole lot of talent who has been given great opportunities...😊
You rock maya❤😊❤😊
👍 Awesome Maya! Nice job on the lead guitar part. I hope you had a lot of fun. That was a great first Heavy Metal concert experience for you. I hope you learned a lot from it and that it inspires you to start your own band. 🎸🎶👏👏👏👏👏👏
What an incredible achievement ! Damn.............. exceptional performance. KUDOS to Maya ! Sharing the stage with Alex and Chuck !
Congratulations 🤟❤
I'm so so happy for you!!! Keep on rocking Maya!!!!
Excellent Maya. You deserve it. I am a very big fan of you. Keep rocking♥♥♥
Maya is here making Metal mainstream!! This is epic...this is exactly what the scene needed! Well done Maya!
Maya, new rock legend in the formation. Hope you will release an album of your own with fusion of rock and classical Indian music....❤❤❤❤❤
