Highly influential bassist Ryan Martinie of Mudvayne will be joining another legendary heavy rock band, Korn, on the band’s upcoming tour, covering the band’s bass duties!
Ryan Martinie quickly became regarded as a bass virtuoso after the breakout success of Mudvayne stemming from the release of their seminal record L.D. 50 in 2000. Songs such as “Dull Boy”, “Out to Pasture” and “Dig” showcased Ryan’s unique style and caught the ears of an entire generation of young bassists that have incorporated similar techniques into their repertoire. Ryan often utilizes chords, tapping, slapping, and other techniques that are rare in the rock and metal idioms.
The members of Korn contacted Ryan to fill in for Korn bassist Fieldy who has taken a leave of absence from touring.
Ryan has been endorsing Warwick instruments and amps since the beginning of his career and has brought the “Sound of Wood” to millions of listeners around the globe.
