| | | | Singer+Solo Bass Players like Seth Horan: Suggestions?
Sign in to disble this ad
Can u suggest me more bass players like Seth Horan?
Obviously I need bass players who mostly perform SOLO bass without a band and SING at the same time...
It would be great for me to listen to them because I also sing and play solo bass on my own.

Bad : No one to get inspiration from. 
Good : I am one of the few in the world.

| | | There is also Les July...But couldnt find much video on him and nor on Seth...Not many videos around 
I dont really count artists like Sting, Paul Mccartney in this thread because I am lookin for some real chordal and slap-tap bass playing.

He normally plays nylon string guitar though...

(chordal bass playing mostly) Any similar artists?

| | | | wow... major Necropost
Anyway, I've though of doing that kind of thing. I got the idea from a guy I saw on Youtube doing a beatles cover with just bass and vocals.
I've recently started reworking Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd, and written some of my own stuff, but I'm having trouble coming up with original lyrics. I can't write love songs, I'm not political enough to only do protest stuff, really the only time I write good lyrics (or any lyrics that aren't total **** for that matter) are when I start rummaging around in the dark corners of my soul, find my inner psychopath, and write about misanthropy, satanism, and human sacrifice. |
