Jay Anderson

You have to serve the music . . . whatever it is.

Bone2pick is back up and running with a fantastic sit down featuring one of the most respected and in demand bass players on the international jazz scene, the great Jay Anderson. Jay generously shares his thoughts and memories of growing up in Southern California, his early professional years with Woody Herman and Carmen McRae, his many years anchoring the bass chairs of the Grammy Award winning Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra and Bob Mintzer Big Band, his longtime association with Joe Sample and his vast amounts of touring and recording with the likes of Michael Brecker, John Scofield, Kenny Wheeler, Michael Franks, Frank Zappa, David Bowie, Allen Ginsberg, among many others. Enjoy!
