It was such a pleasure to sit down with James Genus while he was in town
playing with jazz icon Herbie Hancock. Genus' has had an incredible
career not only as a first call sideman for the likes of Branford
Marsalis, Roy Haynes, Bob James and Chick Corea, but he has held the
bass chair at Saturday Night Live (SNL) for nearly 25 years and played
on one of the biggest pop albums of the 2000s - Random Access Memories.
We get into detail about all of this and more (including THAT story
about his stolen Fodera near the end of the interview) so make sure you
grab some snacks or drinks and settle in for a great conversation with a
modern day bass legend: James Genus
