Anthony Crawford: Jazz vs Hiphop
Bassist Anthony Crawford shared this on his Facebook page and it immediately caught my attention. He recorded it as a demo for his Mirura MB-2 bass, and the song is just as stunning as the bass. The story behind the music is incredible, too. “This is a song from my last album, Urban Jazz/My Story,” Crawford explains. “I call the...

House of Waters: Sense
Back in August, we shared House of Waters’ video, “In Waves“, which generated enough views to make the top 10 for the month. Here’s another terrific video by the band, which features Moto Fukushima on bass, Max ZT on Hammered Dulcimer and Luke Notary on percussion. Read about this exciting band in the link above, and enjoy this video, “Sense”.
Chris Dave Trio: Criss Cross
As bass players, we know the groove is paramount. That’s why this clip of Foley laying down a killer bass line while drum master Chris Dave changes the feel over and over is incredible. Foley, who played with Miles Davis from 1987 to 1991, gets into a trance on his line while Dave and saxophonist Zhenya Strigalev play with and...

Roberto is joined by vocalist Chiara D’Emilio, who also handles the loops on this tune.
Tedeschi Trucks Band: Made Up Mind (Live in Vienne)
When I grow up, I want to play bass just like Tim Lefebvre. His lines are just fantastic, and check out his massive tone on this clip of the Tedeschi Trucks Band performing “Made Up Mind”. This performance took place at the Théâtre Antique in Vienne, France on July 4, 2014.
Weather Report with Victor Bailey: D Flat Waltz, Live in Japan (1985)
Our thoughts are with Victor Bailey as he struggles with serious health issues. Yesterday, Wayne Shorter shared a video of Weather Report performing in Japan in 1985. This particular clip of “D Flat Waltz” really took me back to a time spinning vinyl and admiring Victor’s work as a teenager. And it wasn’t just his work with Weather Report, but...
Frank and Joris Brunot: Pulling Me Through/Beautiful
Bassist Frank Brunot and guitarist/vocalist Joris Brunot teamed up to play make this awesome musical mixture of “Pulling Me Through” by Todd Dulaney and “Beautiful” by Mali Music. The tone of the music is gorgeous, and Frank’s bass playing is beyond fantastic.
Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals: Put Me Thru
This one just knocked me out. Anderson .Paak took his band, The Free Nationals, into the Rock Revival Showroom to do a live session. Here’s the group performing “Put Me Thru,” – from the album – with some added crunchy goodness. Bassist Kelsey Gonzalez lays it down on this one.
Metallica: Moth Into Flame
Metallica has given another preview of their upcoming album Hardwired… to Self-Destruct, due out November 18th. Similar to “Hardwired“, “Moth Into Flame” is another thrasher anchored by bassist Robert Trujillo, who also handles backup vocals. Trujillo recently said that the albums sounds crushing. “Sound-wise, it’s got a lot of firepower,” he said. “I’m excited about the songs, but I’m also...
The Bassmonsters: Live in Prague
The 2016 BASSEUROPE convention just wrapped up, and it was quite a week of bass goodness. Held in Prague, the event included tons of double bass performances and clinics. Here’s a clip of The Bassmonsters performing during the convention. The song is the group’s theme song, written by the talented bassist and composer Simón Garcia. This lineup of the Bassmonsters...
