Billy Sheehan on Groove - The No Treble Podcast, Episode 133

For many of us, Billy was the first bassist who quietly gave us permission to think differently about the instrument (he was for me)… to hear it not just as support, but as architecture, conversation, and emotion. We dig into his newest project, The Fell, where that same restless curiosity is being funneled into something collaborative and deliberately unpolished. It’s a reminder that legacy doesn’t mean standing still. This marks Billy’s second appearance on the podcast. He was the very first guest we ever recorded live at NAMM back in 2018. This isn’t just a discussion about bass technique or career highlights… it’s a reflection on how one player’s values helped reshape an instrument, and how that ripple continues to move through almost every bassist who ever stopped, rewound the tape, and thought: “Wait… you can do that?”
