Eric Revis doesn’t just play the bass… he interrogates it. Born in California and now one of the most respected voices in modern jazz, Eric’s journey into the instrument began like many others... through curiosity, records, and a gravitational pull toward the low end, but quickly evolved into something far more intentional. This conversation was recorded during the Montreal International Jazz Festival, where Eric was in town performing with Branford Marsalis… a fitting backdrop for a discussion rooted in tradition, evolution, and what it really means to play this music at the highest level.
