The Upton Report v2.9

URB for EB Players

EB players who consume YouTube content probably already know of Adam Neely’s channel full of lessons. But for you URB players (aka double bassists) he may be new to you.

We talk to a LOT of electric players who have the urge to pick up the double bass. Whether adding the double bass to add to their arsenal to pick up more gigs or just to satisfy the life long craving to play a “real bass” (I’m gonna get flamed for that one!) the pull is almost universal.

While Adam’s video isn’t new, it’s still relevant and…in theme with the holidays!

Catch you next week! -Eric
