A drummer I read about in Modern Drummer.  

Here's a song from her solo album "Soaring":

(from Nov 2011 issue of Modern Drummer):
Hilary Jones Soaring (7 out of 10)
Hilary Jones (dr, vcl), Jimmy Haslip, Jimmy Earl (bs), Robben Ford (gtr), Jeff Babko, John Thomas (kybd)
Drummers unfamiliar with Hilary Jones' work with Lee Ritenour, Scott
Henderson, Eric Marienthal, and Robben Ford should check out her
debut solo recording. Hilary shifts through different styles and moods,
showcasing her versatility. "Alive Again" features Hilary laying down
a feel-good New Orleans shuffle before climaxing with short fusion
fills to end the tune. On the title track, she's blazing right from the start
with a nice displacement of accents. "Come To Mama" grooves behind a strong backbeat,
and "Midget Match" features a spastic funk beat. (Think Bernard Purdie meets
Stewart Copeland.) And on "Hot Dog! That Made Him Mad" and the Pretenders cover
"Talk Of The Town," you'll hear Hilary like you've never heard her before: on vocals.
Nice work! (mvw.hilaryjones.com)

Hilary obviously belongs on the site, but I am having a hard time determining the genre for her album(s). I have looked around on the internet, but I'm still having a hard time finding more samples other than that one song.

I understand.  That was the only one I was able to find as well.  I was hoping someone else would have more luck finding some more samples. Embarrassed

I'll keep looking, otherwise we will just put her in either Classic Fusion or Funk Jazz, she's been approved though.
