Yeah, Om has been mentioned a few times already.

But perhaps it is already time for us to get BACK TO THE TOPIC, keep 'em coming :thumb: Bands with bass guitars doing all the job. Or at least doing all the guitars job. :cool:

I dropped an OM post earlier in the thread. Fantastic live band. Emil's a killer fit, too. Their reworking of Bihima's Theme (start with what's basically the middle section on the album--the just bass part) was nuts.

Back on topic.

I'm assuming live band hip-hop acts don't count?

If you could find one that worked on bass guitars only, it would!

Baritone guitars count but only if they are down tuned to bass territory. ;) Thanks for contributing, never heard of neither of these.
