Bassist David Dyson – Bass Powerhouse

In our earliest years (about 17 years ago) he contributed to Bass Musician with numerous bass-relevant pieces. He is an amazing and talented bass player who also writes music, does arrangements, is a producer, teaches, and has played with a ton of great musical acts.

Join me as we hear about David’s musical journey, how he gets his sound, and details about his signature Skjold design basses. He shares his plans for the future and how you can hear him in a venue near you.
