Tony Levin


Listen Later

Tony Levin’s love of the bass guitar began when he was just ten years old, when his focus was classical music and performing on a double bass - and he never looked back.  His classical training transitioned to rock and jazz, and his reputation as an A-list session bassist filtered throughout the music industry.  Of course, one of Tony’s primary gigs has been holding down the bass chair for Peter Gabriel since the late ‘70s, performing on nearly all of Peter’s recordings and tours.  However, his resume is extensive, having performed with John Lennon, Stevie Nicks, Pink Floyd, Paul Simon, Lou Reed, Buddy Rich, David Bowie, and many other icons in the music industry, along with being a member of Stick Men and Liquid Tension Experiment.  Tony has a brand new album set to release on September 13 titled "Bringing it Down to the Bass". He's currently rehearsing for the upcoming BEAT tour: A supergroup that also includes Steve Vai, Adrian Belew, and Tool drummer Danny Carey, who will perform music from the three King Crimson albums that were released in the '80s.  Here to talk to us about these new projects and his extensive career is none other than Tony Levin.
