Vulfpeck has just released a video for their seventh track on The Beautiful Game, as a follow up to “Dean Town“. And this one gets funky. This one was written by Jack Stratton, who plays guitar on the tune which features a few guests: Pegasus Warning on vocals, Jamire Williams on drums and Joey Dosik on alto sax. As always,...

Dmitry Lisenko shared his newest video with us, and once again, we were highly impressed. The bassist shows off his impressive acoustic bass and percussive style in a tune he calls “Flat Earth”.

BassPlayerAdam knocked us out with his medley of Jaco Pastorius tunes. He asks, “Can you name all the songs?”

Thank God for Julie Slick. While wading through countless awful political posts in my Facebook feed, I saw this incredible clip of her ripping it up on the Adrian Belew Power Trio song “B3”, and it saved my day. The track comes from the 2009 ABPT album e, which features Slick and her brother Eric on drums. It’s a short...

Aaron Gibson has a new demo out for another song that will appear on his next album. As always, Aaron impresses us with his unique style and compositions. Aaron’s Kickstarter campaign for the new album is still going if you’d like to help support the project.

It has been a lot of fun to watch the development of Stuart Clayton’s new edition of Giants of Bass (releasing in March, 2017). In this edition, Stuart takes on the style of Marcus Miller.

Yvon Gravel shared this video with us, featuring the mighty Octobass. CBC shared a story on the bass, which stands 12 feet 8 inches tall and is comprised hundreds of parts and a system of levers that make it possible for an experienced musician to play with a bow. This particular instrument is a reproduction of the original built by...

Andrea De Donato shared this video with us of his new band, The Brilliant Corners. The tune “Klingon” showcases Andrea’s work on both bass and bass synth. What a fun tune!

Here’s a dynamic duo if I ever saw one. Bassist Rich Brown and drummer Larnell Lewis have teamed up to form Lewis.Brown. This clip of “Forward Motion (redux)” recorded at the Placebo Space in Toronto last month is leaving us wanting more. Brown sets up a heavily syncopated groove with loop pedal before Lewis jumps in and the two get...

The last time we saw Diego Tarantino, he took the Pat Metheny tune “Better Days Ahead” and turned it into a lead bass arrangement. Diego just sent us his latest, where he applied his skills to the Stevie Wonder tune, “Sir Duke”. Diego nails the lead line and throws in a terrific solo on his ’72 Fender Jazz.

Since it’s debut on the 1982 album, Signals, Rush hadn’t performed “Losing It” live. That all changed on Rush’s R40 tour, where they performed the tune during their stop in Toronto on June 19, 2015. Joining them on stage was violinist Ben Mink, who performed on the original track. YYNOT decided to take the R40 version and do a cover....

Timothy Perkins sent us this cool video for “The Lonely Man Theme”, and it’s impressive. The bassist brings it all to the table for the high and lonesome melody, including his five-string, his double bass, and a fretless. The playing is fantastic and the song itself will get stuck in your head.
