92 - Is Versatility on the Bass Overrated? Well, it depends…

The SBL Podcast

About this episode

Can you play heavy metal and smooth jazz and pop, all in one day? Or are you strictly the bassist for one act and one act only? It used to be taught that versatility would equal more opportunity for success in your bass playing career, but is that still the case? In today’s episode we ask if it’s actually better to flip this idea on its head and focus your energy in just one direction!

In this Episode you're going to learn:

  • Why Ian has always valued versatility.
  • How to know which path is right for you.
  • What Scott learned from a Gary Willis ‘mic drop moment’ 
  • Why you need to check out drummer Dave Elitch
  • And much, much more!
