Wow! Zach popped up on my Pandora Hard Rock station with a couple of songs from his new album Let's Get Loud. Love his sound! A little Lenny Kravitz in there and a whole lotta blues!
I only heard Marcus King and Zach Person this month. It's been a good month. Both kickass guitarists with great voices and super tight bands. Really extra impressive from a duo too. Like the idea of re-amping the bass parts through the Ampeg SVT stack. And having the drummer act as master trigger brain, freeing Zach for all the guitar and singing. Shows how super minimal bass can actually be, while still being super effective (maybe even more effective).
Am I hearing a bass guitar? Hard to tell what is pre recorded these days. Or just off of camera? Def heard backing vocals. I like Zach. I'll see him in Telluride this year.
@@bartvangheluwe7041 He said in an interview with Casino. They used to be a three piece, but during covid started doing this a 2-piece. Then continued after. They record the bass parts, on a P Bass I think he said, then play along to that. But the drummer is also doing some triggering of other parts, that go along with the bass. Like there's what sounds like _maybe_ a low synth part there around 23 minutes in Remnants (or maybe Bass with Chorus playing intervals). Zachs got a simple looper on his board too, like he uses for that transition to the last track, that's playing a tight loop of the barre chord he just played before, while he's dropping the capo, tuning up, and putting on the slide for the slide track (Can't Stop Runnin'). He said he uses the looper if he breaks a string or something too. Oh, and the bass part is reamped through that big Ampeg SVT bass stack, so they get the live bass rig pushing air on stage, not just through the PA.
