I was listening to some old hymns on my late grandmother’s birthday that she would always sing and felt inspired to play around with a little arrangement on bass. I know a few people have expressed some interest in getting more familiar with bass chords - would you like a breakdown on the chords etc… in this arrangement? It’s inspired from Mateus Asato’s guitar arrangement of because he lives/great is thy faithfulness

Hello fam, I’m david LUMBALA, professional bass player and church bass player too. I want to know how it spends here

Hey everyone, So excited to have you here. I'm Caleb and grew up playing bass in church but had no one to teach me & was self taught by force. Often we wear self taught as a badge of honour but it's not until I went to uni that I realised how limiting that was for me. Long story short, did my music degree & had a career as a professional bassist in TV, Film, The West End and session work. Now I teach on a music degree course and want to build a community to bring that level of education to people looking to play in church so you don't have to do it the hard way. Let’s learn from each other and let’s shed 👀 Please start by saying hi and introducing yourself below in the comments and let us know how long you've been playing & where you're based. Oh and also, this community is going to reach a wide range of people from different cultures, countries, communities and walks of life so be respectful with everyone and stick to talking about playing bass in church. Any ferocious doctrine or cultural debates will have you removed as that takes away from what this is for - helping people learn to play bass & serve better in churches.

Here's a breakdown on how I view modes and use within bass guitar. This is based on some of the challenges that I've uncovered from a few of the chats I've been having with members in the community. I'm doing a few more research calls with community members to learn how I can best support you all in the community. If you would like to have a 15 minute chat, let me know and we'll get that booked in. Drop any questions you have about this video. Does it make sense? where do you feel your roadblocks are right now?

I’m curious, what do you enjoy doing outside of music? It’s easy to get so caught up in music and forget that we are all real people here. Let me know, what are you into outside of music?
