Bass Player UK  |  January 2016
Did you want to be a rock star when you were young? Of course you did: so did we all. Thank God most of us were playing air bass with tennis rackets in the bedroom mirror long before Youtube was invented. But did any of us ever think what it would really be like to hit the commercial jackpot as a bass player? The tourbuses, the long-haul flights, the screaming fans banging on the windows of your limo... and that’s before we even get into bass technique and gear. All is revealed about life in the hottest of hot new bands this issue, as we meet Ben McKee of Imagine Dragons, whose sold-out UK arena tour last month saw them play in front of hundreds of thousands of fans. Is Ben retaining a reasonable sanity level? Read and find out...
Our oft-repeated mission to include all of bass life in BGM peaks this issue with a plethora of interviews and columns from people and players in the know. Look at the genres we’ve stuffed into the magazine you’re holding: metal (Nikki Sixx of Mötley Crüe), jazz (Michael Janisch and Jeff Berlin), rock (Rhino Edwards), pop (Lucy Shaw) and everything else (the ace bassists in Bassically Speaking). We’ve got representatives from the Musician’s Union, Rockschool and Basschat delivering their wisdom; the best bass tutors in two continents providing you with bass education at all levels; and a mind-blowing gear review section, covering ground from a £4000 fretless bass to a £59 fuzz pedal. What are you waiting for? Thank you for making this year so amazing, and see you in 2016!
