Joanna Bolme (b. April 1[1] 1968[2]) is a multi-instrumentalist (primarily bass guitar) and recording engineer who has worked with several indie rock bands and artists, mainly in the Pacific Northwest. She is currently the bass player in Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks and Quasi, having previously spent time playing bass for The Minders.[3] She also dated the late Elliott Smith and was crucial to the finishing of his posthumous record, From a Basement on a Hill.[2] In 2006 she joined the indie rock band Quasi on tour, and in 2007 it was announced that she had become a permanent member of the band.[4]
