Bass Players... Who's that guy?

[bucknaked]

I brought up a topic a few months ago, about slap bass, and everybody responded with a particular name to pay attention to.

Actually saw the guy on BETJazz.

The guy has/had dreadlocks and a brother who plays drums...

What the hell was his name!?

1. Victor Wooten?

His percussionist brother is RoyEl Wooten, or Future Man. His other brothers are also very talented musicians. That is the only one I know anyway.

2. Yeah. Sounds like Victor Wooten.

He has a tutorial video out with Carter Beaufort (Dave Matthews Band drummer) that deals a lot with slapping technique.

3. yep. Vic Wooten

Check him out on the song "Some Days Are Better Than Others" on Jonell Mosser's new CD, "Time Will Do The Talking."

Damn!

Damn.

Thanks!
