Leonid & Friends are celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Ides of March’s self-titled debut album with this cover of the tune “Vehicle.” As always, Leonid Vorobyev and the band NAIL IT.

Theo Katzman visited the Paste Studio in New York City recently, in support of his new album, “Modern Johnny Sings: Songs in the Age of Vibe.” Joined by his Vulfpeck bandmate Joe Dart, the band performed three tracks from the album.

Until today, I wasn’t familiar with Tones and I’s hit tune, “Dance Monkey.” But Zander Zon changed that with his latest solo bass performance video. In this clip, Zander incorporates multiple instruments to create this arrangement.

I’ve been a big YYNOT fan since the beginning. It has been a blast watching this band grow from a (mostly) Rush cover band into a band making their own mark. Here’s the video for “She Said I Love The Rain,” from the latest album, “Resonance.”

Peter Gabriel’s “Sledgehammer” has always been a favorite of mine, pretty much exclusively because of Tony Levin’s epic bass line. Here’s a clip of the band performing the tune at the Fila Forum in Milan, in 2003. (And a bonus video!)

Joe Satriani is releasing his 18th studio album, “Shapeshifting,” in April, with Chris Chaney on bass. He’s just released a video for the tune “Nineteen Eighty” as a preview of what’s to come.

I’ve always been fascinated with the story of Jack Casady recording with Jimi Hendrix. Experience Hendrix shared this “behind the scenes” video of Hendrix’s sessions on Voodoo Chile / Voodoo Child, with clips of Casady, Noel Redding, and more.

Jason Raso sent us a new video featuring another one of his killer compositions. Joined by guitarist Robb Cappelletto and drummer Peter Grimmer, here’s the trio performing “Double Double.”

Here’s a great clip of The Wood Brothers performing live at the WFUV studios, and another tune from their new album, “Kingdom In My Mind.” This performance is especially cool, with Chris Wood’s bass work in the spotlight.

As with many Scary Pockets videos, I see the title of the video first and think “I’m not sure how this one is going to turn out.” Then I watch and realize I need to stop doubting. In this clip, the group adds the funk to Imogen Heap’s “Hide and Seek.”

The legendary reggae rhythm section of Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare teamed up with Roots Radics for the album “The Final Battle.” Shakespeare’s simple yet perfect groove adds motion to the track, “This Morning.”

Since David Sanborn’s “Sanborn Sessions” debuted, I’m always looking forward to a new episode. In session #3, the band was joined by Jonatha Brooke and Charlie Hunter to perform Brooke’s song, “Inconsolable.” Ben Williams once again is on bass.
