At the start of this month I got to catch up with @Andrew Taylor-Cummings, maker of Anaconda Basses. Many of you will be aware of his instruments and they are currently played by the likes of Matt Ramsey, Jahmal Nichols and many more! @Andrew Taylor-Cummings is actually in this group, though he's busy sorting basses but if you ever wanted to head down to the workshop, discuss trying out the instruments or a custom build, drop him a message on here and get in contact with him through the website. https://www.anacondabasses.co.uk/Players It is always great to be able to connect brands to the people behind them and Andrew knows and understands the church & gospel community so if Anaconda wasn't on your list of considerations for your next bass, take a look!

My anaconda J Essence just touched down this mug issa beast 🥵😮‍💨

Happy Sunday, I’m curious, what gear are you using? Basses, amps, pedals etc… & why?

Please give a big welcome to the newest member, my daughter, born last week 🙌🏾 you can tell I’ve been a little quieter than usual (and a lot less rested), largely thanks to this one 😌. Don’t worry I’ve got the Uke bass ready and waiting to show her the ropes. But I’m back now and we’ll slowly start ramping things up in here. Let me recap the vision with this group: This group is here to remove the barriers to learning to play, especially for our church musicians. The community will grow into all you NEED to get going and playing in church. I know what it’s like to not be able to afford, or even find good music lessons, especially someone that can teach the information that is directly useful for playing on a Sunday service. To be clear, this group will always be free, but we are going to be operating on the crowdfunding model. I’m setting up a Patreon page and we’re gonna have different goals. It will look something like: Once we hit £1000 per month, I can host live weekly drop in sessions/Q&A At £2500 per month, we’ll provide a small quarterly music gear grant for a member or church (all to be applied for) At £4000+ per month we can increase the frequency or scope of giveaways. Remember the goal is to remove the barriers and as a community, support each other to grow and build thriving teams in churches. There will be no obligation to support but if you like what we’re doing and want to help fellow Christian bassists around the globe then we’d love your support, whether that’s a monthly contribution or one off donation. All the best, C

What's good! myself and @Slater Bailey are heading to the guitar show this weekend in Birmingham. There's lots of bass exhibitors too so it will be a cool hang so if anyone is already going or wants to go let us know, it would be great to see some faces there!
