Jonathan Scales Fourchestra: TNFJ

Our friend Charmaine Kirsch sent in this video, and I was hooked. As if the idea of a steel drums trio isn’t awesome enough, bassist Cody Wright lays down some extremely righteous bass.

He kicks things off with a funky riff and the hits keep rolling. Besides a groove that won’t quit, Wright lays it all out in his solo at the 1:40 mark.
