Bassist Bryan Ladd shared his latest video with us, which is a collaboration with vocalist LaToya Kennedy, guitarist Mark Bowers and drummer Jason Patterson. Here’s the group performing their cover of OutKast’s “Prototype”. So smooth, and dig that bass solo!

Alessandro Corsi shared this killer drum and bass piece he played in the studio with drummer Francesco De Rubeis called “Watt 69,” and we’re glad he did. “It’s a bass solo taken from a tune I wrote 15 years ago for my jazz-funk-rock group, Capolinea,” he said. The high-energy track takes Corsi all over the fretboard with fingerstyle funk, slap...

Bassist Simone Masina sent us his latest video from the duo known as Peekaboom. Joined by vocalist Angelica Lubian, here they are performing their cover of Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida”.

It’s time to get your face melted by Erlend Caspersen again. This time the monster bassist shows you how it’s done on the Abhorrent track “A Lightness of Mind”, which features unrelenting riffs and some satisfyingly dissonant bass chords. For those brave enough to attempt it, Caspersen has supplied the tabs on Dropbox. Fasten your seatbelts.

Alessandro Calabrese shared this video with us, of his original remix of Kool and the Gang’s “Summer Madness”. In this video, Alessandro handles all the instrumentation, which features Kat Moore on vocals. “It’s a chilled lounge track with funky and house influences. To be honest, I don’t really know in which genre I shall put it,” Alessandro shared. “The bass...

Jesús Rico Pérez has released a new album, Scars II. Here he is performing “Ana”, the second track from the album on 6-string fretless. Once again, a beautiful composition and performance by the solo bassist. The album is available on Bandcamp.

3 Sudacas is a trio consisting of vocalist/percussionist Nella Rojas, bassist/vocalist Esther Rojas and guitarist/vocalist Eduardo Mercuri. Here they are performing their original tune, “Tarde de Abril.” Love the song and that bass tone!

Adam Ben Ezra is a man best known to us as a solo bassist. But that’s quickly changed with the introduction of his Trio – and their new album – this year. Here’s the Trio performing “Beyond The Wall”, the 11th track from Can’t Stop Running. Adam said he composed this song specifically for the trio. Amazing performance, beautiful composition.

I recently came across a great full-length concert video of the Talking Heads, and it got me moving. Taken from their November 1980 performance at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey, the band is in rare form with Tina Weymouth sharing bass duties with Busta “Cherry” Jones. Other members of the touring band include soon-to-be King Crimson member Adrian...

Today’s video isn’t really a video, but we don’t care. Once you hear Carol Kaye laying it down, we don’t think you’ll mind either. This is “Boogaloo,” from Kaye’s Picking UP on the E String album.

The Zawinul Syndicate performed at the Munich Philharmonie in Germany in 1989. Featuring Scott Henderson on guitar, Gerald Veasley on bass, Cornell Rochester on drums, Bill Summers on percussion, and Leata Galloway and Carl Anderson on background vocals, here’s the group performing “Carnavalito”. The tune originally recorded on the album. If you like that, check out the version we shared...

Time for one of the greats. Here’s Willie Dixon laying it down (and singing) on “Bye Bye Blues”, along with Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson and Memphis Slim. Timeless!
