The Bassist

essential to most bands of all shapes & sizes, never goes without a gig in the city because s/he’s known for having a small ego, being calm & collected for the most part & yet so vital for the rumble below the riffs, for the funk just under the skin of the gnashing peaks & valleys of distortion or clean jinga jingas on the acoustics, can be the pacemaker of a good reggae song or the minimalistic industrial impetus---giving all from country to dubstep that perfectly needed spice to create a sound that fills all the space & can practice with the primary songwriter without dragging round much of anything besides the axe itself.
