EB players always want to try URB…and Adam’s video, while open to critique from seasoned DB players, has some good meat in it for the BG players looking to add to their arsenal!
The Upton Report v2.8
Going “viral” for the double bass usually means a few thousand views, but as I write this, Davies video has 1,191,277 views and only dropped on Dec 11, 2019! This puts it currently at #30 on the trending video list on YouTube. That’s impressive!

The Upton Report Vol.205 – Black or White?
I’ve been a bit camera shy lately…and we get such positive feedback on all the videos we put out, I know I’ve got to get back into the swing of it. Its not shyness really, I don’t mind public speaking or being in front of the camera at all, and neither does Gary…sometimes its just…
