S1, Episode 12: Sam Suggs

Sam Suggs calls himself an omnivorous musician. I love this tagline. I feel like I’m eating at a fantastic fusion restaurant when I hear Sam’s music.  I'm not expecting these flavors to work, but they are so good together. First, he takes a little 1750s galant style. Next, he adds a dash of Verdi. He finally tops it off with—I kid you not—Skrillex and Daft Punk. Then he marches over to a bar and gives it a battle test in front of the patrons. Best of all, he does this without a looping pedal in sight. Learn more about how he works his magic in this interview. Sam is also kicking off the upcoming International Society of Bassists convention.  We dig into what he’s planning in our chat, and I know you’ll love what he’s got in the works.   Resources we covered in this interview: Sam’s website Sam’s YouTube channel  Study with Sam at James Madison University Music in the Galant Style by Robert Gjerdingen (book recommendation)
