Bass Videos - Page 33

Dominic “Forest” Lapointe is one of the most incredible fretless players in the world. He’s just released a playthrough video for First Fragment’s “Soif Brûlante,” which is highly demanding and equally musical.

Over the years, we’ve featured many great covers by Martin Miller. After five years of work, his new album, “Maze of My Mind,” is out. Here’s the music video for “Web of Lies,” which includes Linus Klausenitzer on bass.

Nenad Vasilic sent us his latest video, which features music from his upcoming album, Bass & Strings. “Minority” starts out with bass and drums before a string ensemble joins in to add another great layer.

We love when you share your videos with us. Martin Gauthier and his band bring it on this cover of The PB Underground’s “Played It Right.” Tight band. Exceptional groove!

Here’s the great Melvin Lee Davis performing Joni Mitchell’s “Edith and the Kingpin” in a totally unique way. MLD is joined by Jesse Milliner on keyboards and vocoder, Rob Bacon on guitar, and Jay Williams on drums.

One of my favorite bands since my teen years is jazz-fusion band Casiopea. When I first heard the track "Mid-Manhattan", I was instantly hooked. Here’s the band performing “Mid-Manhattan” at Blues Alley in Japan.

Charles Berthoud dropped another great video yesterday, saying, “I couldn’t get this idea out of my head so here you go.” In this one, Charles makes “Für Elise” funky.

On this day in 1960, the great Victor Bailey was born. In honor of his birthday, here’s a clip of Bailey and his group performing “Low Blow” at Moody’s Jazz Cafe in Foggia, Italy, in 2010.

One of my favorite bass players, Clark Sims, dropped another vid at Norman’s Rare guitars. He’s joined by funk master Marcus Machado, and they are just KILLING these vintage Fenders!

Donny Hathaway’s “Live” album is an essential one for bassists. Of course, one of the highlights is the landmark bass solo by Willie Weeks on “Voices Inside (Everything is Everything).” Here’s Weeks recreating the solo in a live performance.

Charles Berthoud joined Polyphia for this “jamming version” video of the tune “Playing God” from the band’s latest album, “Remember That You Will Die.

Gerald Veasley is a monster on the 6-string bass. We’re going back to Jazz Jams 2014 for this one. Veasley kicks the set off with one of my favorite tunes, “Valdez In The Country,” which also comes with a killer drum solo.
