Bass-only band

Cool band you have!

I can't understand a word of it
Thanks, it's just something I put together because I knew two singer/guitarists who both speak Portuguese and Spanish. And part of the refrain on that one is in Arabic, which none of us speak. The third and fourth verses are the English version of the song, though.

It probably is a little easier to get away with only having bass when you're doing something that people think of as already "exotic", though.
 
Though not a 2 bass band, Morphine had drums, a 2 string slide bass, and baritone sax, none of those treble type instruments.

Got to see them live and what every member of that group had was mega talent. After all these years it's still high on my list of favorite shows
