Interview With Bassist Dave Perry

Guitar and Bass Conversations ·

2024/12/12

Lately, I have been discovering quite a few multi-instrumentalists who create their music by playing all the instruments involved. The most amazing aspect of this to me is how proficient they are and how the bass plays a significant role in their music.Dave Perry is one such talented musician, and plays all the instruments in the band “Fear of Water”. Not only does he compose and perform all his music but he has had to surmount some serious obstacles to be where he is today.Join me as we lear...

Interview With Bassist Hank Horton

Guitar and Bass Conversations ·

2024/12/05

I always enjoy the opportunity to talk to very seasoned career bass players.Hank Horton is a heavy-hitter vocalist, producer, and bassist who fits into that category. Hank has a diverse skillset where he can play electric for Jeff “Skunk” Baxter (and a ton of other renowned musicians), play upright in the Detroit Symphony, or be excellent in a Broadway pit. I also understand that Hank has been using the Katana-210 Bass Amplifier, typically designed for electric bass, for his upright bass...

I am always impressed by musicians who can play and sing simultaneously.
