Joe Cleveland...wow....

[Huge Hands]

I don't know if other have posted about this guy but I'm a big fan of the NPR Tiny Desk series and I keep seeing Joe Cleveland pop up backing quite a few artists.

 

I've really been getting into his playing, even if he does play it the wrong way round  

 

This is my appreciation thread for him anyway!

 

I found this clip of him doing a live gig - love the way he effortlessly moves from bass guitar to synth....

...amd backing BJ The Chicago Kid.  Love some of his fills on here....

...and Ty Dolla $ign...my favourite on this is the last track "your Turn" around 10:30.

I'd not heard of Joe Cleveland before. Not music that I would normally listen to, but what a nice player.

Some nice jamming and bass solo here:

Joe Cleveland is all over the place at the minute. He's tearing it up with so many artists. Check out his pkaying on Mac Millers Tiny Desk Concert- everyone talks about Thundercats playing on 'Whats the Use', but Joe nails the rest of the set.

I didn't list this one as I personally am not so keen on the music, but in interest of the thread:
