Today’s episode features a legacy bassist who has earned his success. Jack Bates began his career playing in Peter Hook & The Light. Peter Hook is the bassist for both Joy Division & New Order. Jack is his son and his career has consisted of playing 3 hour shows ever since! He now plays bass for The Smashing Pumpkins. He tells us what it’s like to grow up playing bass when your dad is a legend on the instrument. He also discusses how he met Billy Corgan and how he began playing for the Pumpkins. Give him a follow on IG @jackbates_music, because he’s been going live once a week with his dad, and they’re hilarious together!
