I love this guy. Great chops, feel, taste, Tone, and nice collection of basses

I've getting really diggin on a lot of Erik Truffaz's jams lately, and I really love the way Marcello plays the bass.

Anyone else wanna show some love?

Great tone and playing it was excellent, thanks for sharing

Awesomeness. I've on this band since Bending new corners. That takes me back. Truffaz is awesome.

Sorry mate, my fault...I should have let you know... yes as you mentioned they never tour in USA..only few gigs @Nublu NY...

Otherwise regarding the new album Lune Rouge, you can expect some "changes" in the sound..the general mood of the album, the musical direction is under Arthur's hand so...

 

[ugly_bassplayer]

Listened again to my old records. Jeez that bass playing is awesome
