It has been a while since we’ve seen a video by Peekaboom. Thankfully, bassist Simone Masina sent us the latest from the duo. In this one, they perform a beautiful, minimal arrangement of Cecilia Krull’s “My Life is Going On”.

This year was a pivotal one. The toll of 2020 carried over, but the music still happened. And so did our commitment to covering everything we could during a crazy time. Here’s a roundup of your favorite stories, lessons, and more for 2021.

Today, we wrap up our “Best of 2021” Top 10 lists with this one. Every day of the year, we share a video. Here are the top 10 most-watched on No Treble in 2021.

Episode 6 of the Sanborn Sessions featured an appearance by guest Christian McBride. They recently shared a standalone video from the session, where they perform “Señor Blues”. The song kicks off with an epic intro by McBride. And man, his tone!

One of the most popular categories on No Treble is the Bass Gear one. Specifically, new basses. Of all the new basses we covered in 2021, here are the top 10 No Treble reader favorite stories for the year.

Scary Pockets has put together some pretty impressive mashups in the past. Anchored by Nick Campbell’s smooth bass lines, here’s the group performing another: a funk mashup of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” and Bill Withers’ “Just the Two of Us”.

Our bass lessons and transcriptions have always been super popular with readers. This year, we added two new and exciting ones, with Rich Brown’s “The Brown’stone” and Ryan Madora’s “Keep It Groovy“. Here are the top 10 we published in 2021.

It is always exciting to see a video by the Mark Lettieri Group drop. GroundUP Music just shared this live cut of “Red Dwarf” with Wes Stephenson handling both the bass and a Fisher-Price Laugh n’ Learn. What a smokin’ tune!

Kevin Johnson kicked off the Bass of the Week series in August 2011 with the goal of “featuring low-end instruments ranging from beautiful to bizarre.” Every Monday, he features one. Here are the top 10 reader favorite BoTW’s for 2021.

No Treble reader Juraj Kysel sent us this video of his band Fusion Biscuit, and we were hooked. Here they are performing “6/5”.

I’ve always loved the John Lennon tune, “Jealous Guy” (especially Donny Hathaway’s version). Now I get to add another, thanks to The Main Squeeze. (And check out Grace Kelly’s sax solo!)

Over the course of 2021, we covered many new pedals and effects. Here are the top 10 No Treble reader favorites for the year.
