As a musician myself, I can say with relative certainty that she should tell the truth. Be nice about it for sure, but lying doesn’t help him at all. If you need proof that this work’s numerous musicians have dated and even married each other, while working together as musicians. Any musician will tell you that when your working with someone you have to be able to give your honest opinion. So if those celebrity music couples can do it surely these two can. In fact, my guitar player/singer is also dating our other guitar player and they give each other honest opinions all the time and it works just fine.

@Al Shipley: In a former life I was an amateur musician. My girlfriends generally could not stand my music, and most of them only made half hearted attempts to be nice about it. Didn’t stop me, because it’s something I loved doing (and still do on the rare occasion that I have time). If you’re going to restrict your dating pool to people who love what you create in your hobby (or if you manage to make a living as a musician: your job) then that’s awfully limiting.

This relationship is not going to last.

It's pretty hard to date someone when you don't respect their work. (Or maybe that's just me?) She's going to go crazy eventually.

This cuts both ways; if you’re a musician, should you care about what your s.o. thinks of your music? Personally, I think it’d be nice if they can find at least a couple songs to enjoy, but you can’t really over-analyze what other people want to hear, especially people you know, when you’re trying to create your own music. Plus, having them not give a damn about your music would take away the cheesy “groupie” connotations of the relationship.
