Regular live show. I'm an upright bassist in Portland, Maine chatting about music with a focus on classic rock. 📻 Also here are interviews from my 2011-12 podcast "The Roman Midnight Music Podcast", as they are no longer available elsewhere. Channel duplicated on Rumble.

🎧 I played bass in metal trio Tired Wings, alt-country group Willy Martin & The Woods. I've studied slap bass with Slick Joe Fick & Adam Ben Ezra, jazz history with bassist Chuck Israels (Bill Evans Trio, Stan Getz), jazz theory with clarinetist Titus Abbott, world music with singer Margot Hanson. I play exclusively double bass with K&K & Shadow rockabilly pre-amp/pick-ups, Fender Rumble amps, Innovation Rockabilly Reds strings. 🎼
