Neal Miner Interview/Performance - Jazz bass freelancer in NYC 🗽🎵
â–º - All our lessons, interviews & courses in one place!
In this video we feature the incredible bassist, Neal Miner. Known for his hard-swinging bass lines, rich bass tone and tasteful solos, Neal is one of New York’s most in-demand bassists. From his high profile gig with jazz superstar Jane Monheit, to his regular club gigs at Mezzrow and Smalls, he is out there each night playing his best music, then getting the subway home! Neal is the epitome of a ’pro bassist’ and his love for jazz is infectious, so I hope you enjoy the discussion as much as I did!
Be sure to stick around to the end to hear a very classy performance of jazz standard.
