A truly beautiful moment between two incredible musicians, Kiefer and our dear friend Abraham Laboriel Sr.
For this exclusive event in Downtown LA, we invited pianist Kiefer and his killer band to play a show using an awesome Spectrasonics rig for a live audience!
What Kiefer didn't know is that we had a special surprise guest in store for him... none other than "Bass Legend" Abraham Laboriel Sr., one of his greatest heroes and inspirations. Abraham has a very special relationship with Spectrasonics, since he was one of the original artists on our very first sample library 25 years ago!
What happened next is what you see here...a spontaneous expression and heartfelt communication that reminded us all of the joy and power of music. Moments like these remind us of why we do what we do!
Be Encouraged and Encourage Others! :-)
Kiefer Shackelford: Keyscape Rhodes
Abraham Laboriel Sr.: Bass
Will Logan: Drums
Jonah Levine: Trombone & Omnisphere

Wow, the words Abraham says need to be framed. What an incredible man!

@SpectrasonicsVIDEO 4 года назад

So true...almost everything out of his mouth is like that too. When we showed him the final video this week, he said "You guys are using technology as a trampoline to catapult us to higher places" Yep...I think we'll frame that one! :-)

What Abe said is really profound. Considering the fact that he is getting older and knowing he won't physically be with us forever, it's almost like Abe is saying he's confident that the art of music is being left in good hands. The torches have been passed, and he's fine moving aside to let the next generation rise and thrive. As a fan of Abe Laboriel Sr., this display of wisdom just shows once again why he is one of the best musicians ever.

He's one of my first inspirations for such a high love for music. I loved his dancing in Ron Kenoly's "Sing Out" album. I started playing bass in 2011, and just recently about 2years ago started rewatching some of his old footage. He's brilliant and would love to meet him if possible soon.

After 30+ years... my eyes still light up the same way when he plays. There are many legends, but this one right here, top of the list in the most greatness wrapped up in humility!

@_sonicfive 3 года назад

I've been in at least 4 performances like these where Abe performs and really gets emotional. Most of them in rooms that fit no more than 20 people. He is not putting on a show, and it gets even more intimate at band rehearsals. It's beautiful. The first one was around 15 years ago. Every time it feels like he is saying good bye and it breaks my heart.
