Sam Wilkes is one busy bassist. In this clip, he’s laying down the groove on a Jamiroquai/Bee Gees mashup by Pomplamoose. Pomplamoose’s lead vocalist Nataly and keyboardist Jack were listening to Jamiroquai’s “Virtual Insanity,” when Jack noticed how much it sounded like the Bee Gees. He asked Nataly to try to sing “Stayin’ Alive” on top of it. Nataly said...

In celebration of Stanley Clarke’s birthday today, we’re sharing this clip of Stanley and his band going back in time with this performance of Chick Corea’s “Beyond the Seventh Galaxy.” Happy birthday, Mr. Clarke!

Guitarist Cory Wong is well-known to us thanks to his work with Vulfpeck. He has his own album out now, and he’s just released a video for the tune, “Jax.” As you’d expect, the song is super funky, thanks in part to bassist Kevin MacIntire and one stellar horn section. The Optimist is available through Cory’s website.

Milk’n Blues is a band I discovered on Youtube, thanks to this video. In this clip, the band combines three tunes – Pink Floyd’s “The Happiest Days of Our Lives” and “Another Brick in The Wall”, with The Rolling Stones’ “Miss You.” Eduardo Machado handles both the bass and the backing vocals.

Berklee was rocking with this performance by HAGO. The band’s description says it all: “HAGO is a group from Israel, that plays a unique combination of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Metal, along with Middle Eastern influences, or as they call it – FalafelDjent. In their live set they play original compositions as well as arrangements to ancient Hebrew songs, along...

Scary Pockets keeps bringing it with their excellent re-imagined covers of classic songs. Here’s their take on Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About,” with vocalist Raquel Rodriguez. The arrangement and mastering on this one is something special. As always, Sam Wilkes lays down the low end.

I’ve been really digging the new Parquet Courts album, Wide Awake!, thanks in part to the fun and bouncy bass lines of Sean Yeaton. His playing drives each song with cool grooves and melodic hooks. That’s especially true on the title track. Here’s the band performing “Wide Awake” on The Ellen Show in April. Stay tuned for an interview with...

It is always fun to see a new video from Leonid & Friends pop up. Here’s the band performing another stellar cover of a Chicago tune. This time around, Leonid Vorobyev and the band take on “Street Player.” Special guest Arturo Sandoval joins the group for this one too.

Here’s a great clip of Abraham Laboriel performing John Scofield’s “So You Say” with guitarist Allen Hinds, keyboardist Otmaro Ruiz, and drummer Jimmy Branly. The master at work.

We featured the band ConeSoul for the first time last month, with their groovy tune, “Pela Chuva.” Here’s a more laid back, but equally impressive performance, of their tune “Neblina.” Ottoni de Leon offers up some sweet lines in support of the tune. “The project represents us as a band because of the musical and cultural versatility we have carried...

Forq is back with another terrific video with music from their 2017 album, Thr?q. “Stannic” was written by keyboardist Henry Hey, and features Michael League on bass.

I spotted this new video on Facebook last night, and I lost count of how many times I watched it. Here’s Tom C Walker’s band performing Tom’s tune, “Change In You” live. Deano Bass is laying down on rock-solid groove!
