At Home with Mark: Ryan Stasik
from At Home With Mark
In 2005ish I heard a record called Anchor Drops that fundamentally changed the way I viewed improvisation in a jamband setting... AND also made me remember who I was and how it's still okay to dig heavy music. Ryan Stasik, bass player in the Chicago based band Umphrey's McGee, will be joining me to chat about his story. Ryan is one of my favorite bass players on the scene because his sense of groove and time are always locked, his proclivity to melody and fearlessness to create spontaneous ideas, even in the deepest/darkest chasms of an improvisational setting are mind blowing! If you don't believe me, just listen to any UM "Jimmy Stewart" and strap in for a ride. Grab a cold beverage and kick it with us... per usual, it's gonna get nerdy.
