chris_b Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Well the new year has only just started and I've found another great band. I've never heard of these guys before but I like the band especially the bass player. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKg_3kyIhHc[/media] Edited January 1, 2014 by chris_b Quote
dannybuoy Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Like it! Especially when the bearded dude gets up and shouts incomprehensibly whilst trying to pull his shorts up to his armpits! Quote
dannybuoy Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Do you know of any other similar bands worth checking out? Quote
the boy Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 I really like that....... I checked them out on spotify since this and they are awesome. Thank you for sharing that. 👍 Quote
Pinball Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 I hate them, especially the bass player...makes me want to give up Quote
Happy Jack Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 Sorry Chris but you should really have posted this link on GuitarChat. Just to make a point, like ... Quote
dannybuoy Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 In fact this video has me wanting to try another Stingray style bass. Great vintage tone. Quote
Grassie Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 If the question is "Which band would you most like to be in?" then the answer must be "Vulfpeck". Their track "Beastly" is my favourite. Class. Quote
Dingus Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 Funky Germans? Am I dreaming this ? Wasn't that Fender Rhodes player in "Das Boot" ? Amazing music , but when the chap with a beard starts rapping it gets a bit disturbing . Quote
BigBeatNut Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Great band. I found them mid-late last year, most likely from a post in the '[url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/70165-funk-and-groove/"]funk and groove[/url]' thread ... bought a selection of their MP3s. So yeah, thumbs up from me Quote
BigBeatNut Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Don't miss this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C430AWTvMPs Quote
Grassie Posted January 5, 2014 Posted January 5, 2014 By the end of this year I shall be done with my current band, no more "classic" rock (or rock in general) for me. My next band will be something like Vulfpeck, or The Meters, that kind of vibe. Originals, instrumentals, just some funky s**t all the way. Quote

Drummer lined up already, guy I really enjoy working with, and we have a huge overlap in music tastes. Galactic and Meters at the forefront of those. Not too bothered about having a vocalist, but I suspect that to get a decent number of gigs we may have to include some vocal numbers. Quote

scalpy Posted January 5, 2014 Posted January 5, 2014 Anybody know a) what his single humbucker bass is and how he gets that hot fat sound please? Their top tune in my book... My First Car, complete with the grandest cowbell solo ever!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUyuGjLy4BQ Quote

dannybuoy Posted January 5, 2014 Posted January 5, 2014 I wondered what the bass was too. Got somewhere in the ballpark with my T40, both pickups with the tone rolled off halfway and volume turned down a bit on the neck pickup! Quote
grahamd Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 This isolated bass track shows how in the pocket his phrasing really is… jeez… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9xRuViPdkI Quote
