Today is our good friend Bakithi Kumalo’s birthday, and we’re celebrating with one of his all-time great bass lines. Here’s a live clip of “You Can Call Me Al.”

I always loved the band Elephant Gym. They recently visited the KEXP studios and performed “Games.” KT Chang’s playing is so impressive.

Robyn Adele Anderson records some unique covers, and this recent one is a Latin cover of Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love.”

Leland Sklar’s YouTube channel has so much incredible content. Last week, he posted this video, sharing some personal stories and then playing along to James Taylor’s “Mexico.”

Zander Zon posted another “Bass Battle” video with Charles Berthoud, and this is a short, but wild ride. The video includes a “tapping round,” a “fingerstyle round,” and a “pick round.”

If you are a bass player who struggles with finding the key or hearing the right keys of the song, this video by Jermaine Morgan is for you. Here are a few tips on how he’s developed his ear.

Lake Street Dive recorded this video of “Better Not Tell You” live at The Bridge Studio in Brooklyn, NY. Bridget Kearney is sporting a Fender bass this time and anchors the band perfectly, as always. This is a preview of their upcoming album, “Good Together.”

Remco Hendriks got together with Red Hot Chili Peppers founding drummer Jack Irons for this epic jam. He calls it "Heavy Fretless Rock Bass."

When NPR dropped this Tiny Desk Concert with Ne-Yo, I let it play in the background while I worked. I found myself going back to the video frequently. I love everything about this, including the incredible work of Justin Raines on bass and bass keys.

His last name is Pastorius, but he has definitely carved his own footprint. In today’s video, we have Felix Pastorius. This live performance at The Cave is reminiscent of that 70’s and 80’s fusion!

Black Hole Constellation’s Michal Jahoda sent us this “bass ballad recorded in medieval underground” video. Michal plays throught the ending of “The Outsiders Saga II,” which is on Black Hole Constellation’s album, “Garden of Deception Delights.”

John Ferrara’s latest project is a trio called Mono Means One, and they’re gearing up for their debut album and a tour. We’re happy to help premiere the studio video for “Enormous Forces.”
