In today’s podcast Andrew McKinney lends an insight into every bassman’s dream gig.Aside from leading the bass department at BIMM London, Andrew McKinney is bassist with the James Taylor Quartet, whose high-energy blend of groove jazz has earned them legions of fans right across the globe. What’s more, the bass parts are almost always jaw-droppingly amazing – and Andrew is the first to admit how lucky he is to be in a band that allows the bass such space to move. “I was described once as a ‘magical, musical, midfield general’, which I take as a compliment!” He also continues his freelance work, regularly depping on shows in London’s West End.
