Player Interviews
Interviews with the world's greatest bass players. Kick back, relax and listen to your favourite players break down their influences, bass techniques, gig stories, advice for bass players to succeed in their careers and lots more.
Listen to the world's greatest bass players talk about everything from what inspired them to pick up the instrument, what jump started their career, the philosophies behind their playing and so much more. We've been lucky to sit down with bass players from nasty pocket players like Hubert Eaves IV (Erykah Badu, Will Downing, Seal) to session and touring masters like Jack Daley (Lenny Kravitz, Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen) to jazz greats like Rich Brown (Solo Artist, Larnell Lewis, Steve Coleman, Dapp Theory) and David Dyson (Solo Artist, Meshell Ndegeocello, NKOTB, The Schultz Family).
Did you know that Hubert Eaves IV turned down the gig that resulted in Erykah Badu's "Live" album, a record which he's now famous for, twice before he accepted it? Do you know what a pro session drummer like Sekou Lumumba of Big Wreck looks for in the bass players he plays with? Do you know the best ways to get and retain high profile gigs? These are just a few things you'll learn in this great series of interviews.
