Driftwood: Bass Sticks/Lemonade
I’ve been lucky to see Driftwood play a couple of times, so when my pal Bill Rudd sent me this performance from this year’s Finger Lakes GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance, I stopped to watch.
The clip begins with a bass feature called “Bass Sticks” that sees Joe Kollar adding some extra rhythm to Joey Arcuri’s bass solo. Sam Fishman jumps in on drums as Arcuri crafts the jam using the entirety of the fingerboard. After working the band into a frenzy, the trio makes space for the intro to “Lemonade.”

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.
