About this episode
In today’s video, we asked Michael League to dig into his earliest influences and name the bass lines that helped define his career with four-time Grammy Award Winners Snarky Puppy.
There were a few things we agreed on:
- Bootsy Collins belongs on every top 10 list.
- Your drummer is your best friend.
- David Hood is a bass guitar genius.
Everything else was up for debate. Well, almost everything…
In this episode:
- Michael names his favorite bass line of all time.
- And the British rock band he idolized as a teen.
- We talk through his Jaco Pastorius phase.
- Bootsy Collins - just check out his swagger on Do That Stuff!
- And much, much more!
