Olivier Babaz: “Teen Town” on Double Bass and Kalimba
There’s something very satisfying about the combination of bass and kalimba. Olivier Babaz plays both simultaneously (not to mention a foot shaker) in this chilled out rendition of the Jaco Pastorius tune “Teen Town.”
Talk about coordination!
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.

Cool use of the Kalimba and great arco!
Beautiful take on a classic!
Thx for the nice words dear bass friends !!
Jaco would give his blessing :-)
I can’t stop listening to this. It’s a really beautiful version and very meditative, it’s on the daily playlist.
That was great!
