chris_b Posted January 1, 2014 Share 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.

dannybuoy Posted January 1, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 In fact this video has me wanting to try another Stingray style bass. Great vintage tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassie Posted January 2, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zapp Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Enjoyed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingus Posted January 2, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBeatNut Posted January 4, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassie Posted January 5, 2014 Share 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.

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.

scalpy Posted January 5, 2014 Share 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...

dannybuoy Posted January 5, 2014 Share 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!
