How Willie Weeks Invented the Bass Solo - with Anna Butterss
Jack and Ryan sit down with bassist Anna Butterss to talk about Anna's path to becoming a pro, touring with Jason Isbell, and why they think Willie Weeks’ solo on Donny Hathaway’s “Voices Inside (Everything Is Everything)”—Live at the Troubadour—is the greatest bass solo of all time. Anna dives into their journey as a working musician, how they developed their unique voice on the bass, and the artists who continue to inspire them.
Huge thanks to Anna Butterss for joining us on this episode!
