Who is Justin Bieber's current bassist?

[Lorenzini]

He plays Performance and Fender basses, lots of Synth.

Sometimes GK, sometimes Aguilar.

Always killing it.

Who is he though?

This thread may get interesting.

I regretfully disclose I have not witnessed a live performance of the aforementioned mewler.

[Lorenzini]

Thanks guys.

But actually, his band is full of top flight musicians. I guarantee his rhythm section is tighter, has as many chops and great tone as any other band. Literally one of the biggest gigs in the world.

Does anyone know who it is?

Someone who lies about what artist they back

Whoever he or she is they are eating pretty good.... pretty good.....

If you are considering youself a professional bassist....a gig is a gig. Playing for Justin Bieber could be a sweet deal. Pro all the way. I would imagine good money, first class travel, playing in front of big crowds, plus connections made with MDs and other musicians that can keep you working these high profile gigs for years.

I'd do that gig if the opportunity arose. My step daughter was watching this documentary dvd on Justin and he seems like an ok kid considering. His band was rockin' too! No slacker posers in that band!!

Here's the lineup for his band:

Dan Kantor (guitar/ co-music director)
Tomi Martin (guitar/ co-music director)
Wizard Jones (keyboards)
Bernard Harvey (bass)
Melvin "Melly Mel" Baldwin (drums)
DJ Tay James (dj)
Legaci ( background vocals)

I'd say its probably Rudy Sarzo's sample library.

 

[Lorenzini]

Found him!

Bernard Harvey. Also plays for Mary J. Blige.


2:45 or so.

Booya.

 

[NOVAX]

I still think the world is hearing Workingman's bass.

 

[Josh Pelican]

If I had the opportunity to play for him, I totally would.

$$$$

Also found a guy named Dammo Farmer listed on his studio credits.

 

[Lorenzini]

Yes but Dammo never toured with him. Dammo is a great bass player in his own right.

 

[cronker]

I recall in interview with Stu Hamm where he mentioned that he was turned down for Madonna's live show. At the time, he mentioned that it was the biggest gig in the world.
I would say you are doing ok for yourself if you land one of these 'pop' gigs.

Dammo is bassist Ethan Farmers cousin.

 

[groooooove]

a very lucky bass player

 

[Tupac]

Word. JB must die, but hey, he (or his management, who probably know a bit more than him about musicians) could have his choice of almost any bassist in the world. He's gotta be good.

I would decline a gig for Justin Bieber. I wouldn't want to be labeled as a Pop bass player ...
