Dani Rabin from Marbin sits down with me to talk about Stevie Ray Vaughan, his technique, gear, and tone. We also talk about the state of the music industry and how Marbin has continued to be incredibly successful with touring and building an audience on social media, while jazz-fusion bands have historically struggled since the 1990's.

22 Nov 2024Sean Hurley Breaks Down His Most Iconic Basslines02:17:20

Bonus Episode: Sean Hurley Breaks Down His Most Iconic Basslines

Sean Hurley is a renowned bassist of both studio and stage, known for his dynamic playing and musicality among the top artists in Pop and Rock Music. He gained significant recognition as sideman for John Mayer, dating back to the Battle Studies tour (2010), and then continuing on as a session bassist, contributing to some Mayer's most popular hits on Born and Raised, Paradise Valley, and Sob Rock. Hurley also played a crucial role in Robin Thicke's break-out album (The Evolution of Robin Thicke), laying down smooth, groove-driven basslines that helped define Thicke's signature sound and R&B style. Additionally, Hurley toured and recorded with Vertical Horizon during their debut album, adding depth and precision to the band’s alternative rock vibe, ultimately leading to several chart-topping hits. Here I'll sit down with Sean to talk about his extensive session career, his iconic bass playing, the gear uses to get his signature sound, and get him to re-create some of his most iconic tones for the biggest hits he played on.
