Hello BF readers! Well, we have survived the brutal heat of summer in the south and we survived it well here at BF. It is now starting to turn to fall and the chill in the air is awesome this is by far my favorite time of the year. Living where we enjoy 4 full [...]

Welcome to the all new Bass Frontiers website! We are very proud of our “new look” and we are going to pound the pavement hard in the coming weeks to drive more and more traffic to our site. There are many people who need to be thanked so I would like to take this opportunity [...]

Editors Notes for July 2010 Welcome to summer in hot steamy Nashville, TN! I hope you guys that are located in hot places are staying hydrated! It is beyond hot here in Nashville at this time.

Letter from “An” Editor Hello friends, Matt O’Donnell, Bass Frontiers Managing Editor here. Dave asked me if I’d like to sit in and write the Editor’s Notes for this month.

I have been getting gig calls this summer and most all of them are with major artists that have (at one time) sold multi-platinum. I usually have to show up with NO rehearsals [...]
