The Main Squeeze: Where Do We Go?
Back in November, The Main Squeeze took the stage at Thalia Hall in Chicago and showed off their incredible diversity. Here’s a clip from the show, where they perform “Where Do We Go?” from their debut album.
Tal Wilkenfeld: “Under The Sun” (Live)
Tal Wilkenfeld is gearing up to release her new album this spring. Yesterday, she shared a live video performance of “Under The Sun,” which is one of the tracks on the upcoming record. This was filmed during The Who’s “The Who Hits 50!” tour in 2016.
Lauren Pierce: Zigeunerweisen for Double Bass Solo and String Orchestra
Double bassist Lauren Pierce reached out to us (thanks to our good friend Jason Heath) to share this video with us. Check out this stunning performance of Zigeunerweisen for Double Bass Solo and String Orchestra.
John Scofield: So You Say
Back in 1987, I bought John Scofield’s “Blue Matter” and listened to it nonstop. The combo of Gary Grainger and Dennis Chambers just knocked me out. So it was cool to see this clip of “So You Say” from Chambers’ “In The Pocket” video.
Jimmy Herring Band: Matt’s Funk
I rediscovered this video by Jimmy Herring Band over the weekend and watched it many times. The entire band just brings it on “Matt’s Funk.” Neal Fountain was part of Jimmy’s touring band at that time, and he lays down a tasty line.
Artem Golubev: Orion (All-Bass Arrangement)
Artem Golubev shared this video with us of his all-bass arrangement of Metallica’s “Orion.” He covers all the solos too. Worth noting: he filmed the video in the snow!
Philipp Rehm and Tania Kross: Warawara
Philipp Rehm sent us this video he recorded with Dutch singer Tania Kross. Philipp described it as “bass / beat / vocal track,” and while it wasn’t what we expected, we really dig this sound.
The Johnson Brothers: Calling
In this clip, bassist Nicholas Johnson and guitarist Jabari Johnson start “the year off on the rooftop of The Potter’s House.” Nicholas’ playing is just flat out sick, with a big, fat tone.
Adam Ben Ezra: The Busker (Live)
We’ve featured Adam Ben Ezra performing “The Busker” before, but this one is new and equally cool. It is always amazing to hear the sounds Adam can create.
Scary Pockets: Is This Love
We recently featured a great Scary Pockets video with Tim Lefebvre anchoring the band on their take of “Valerie.” Here’s another one, with the band’s funky arrangement of Bob Marley’s “Is This Love.”
Joel Quarrington: J.S. Bach Sixth Suite BWV 1012
Joel Quarrington is one of the greatest double bassists of our generation. Here he performs Bach’s entire sixth cello suite, BWV 1012, which features six movements. The emotion put into every note will leave you on the edge of your seat.
Metallica: Seek and Destroy, Live (2018)
“Seek and Destroy” is one of my favorite Metallica songs, so it’s nice to see they’ve kept it in rotation. This clip from Dreamfest is exceptional. Not only does the whole band kill it, Robert Trujillo does one of the craziest stage moves I’ve ever seen.
