You do this without realizing…but it should be practiced!

Most bass players practice scales, arpeggios, and technique… but how often do you actually practice connecting chords? 

That’s where APPROACH NOTES come in.

Instead of jumping straight from one root to the next, use the notes around your target to LEAD into it. Even something as simple as playing from C to D, you could play this:

C → C# → D

…immediately creates movement and MOTION.

You can approach chords chromatically, from a whole step away, with multiple notes, or use notes from the key.

This is one of the easiest ways to start turning bass-ic (lol) ideas into more creative bass lines.

Give it a go 🤘

🚀 Most bass players can't feel progress month to month because there's no roadmap.
That's why I built Bass Freedom.
🎸 Learn with the Step By Step course. (11 Levels. 500+ lessons.)
🎵 Apply every concept you learn to custom exercises, real songs, and hundreds of others in the Song Vault.
The problem isn't more practice…it’s structure.

“Something” might be one of Paul McCartney’s most musical bass lines ever.

It’s melodic, yet busy at the right places. It moves all over the chord changes…but somehow it never gets in the way of the song. 

George Harrison actually thought Paul’s bass part was a little too busy. I’m glad it stayed. 😂

This is one of those bass lines where you can learn A LOT just by studying how Paul moves from chord to chord, when he leaves space, and when he decides to take over melodically.

One of my favorites from McCartney. 🤘

Nearly 50 years after my parents played together in a rock band, we stepped into the recording studio together to record a family rock medley and capture our first professional performance as a family.

Now, I can finally introduce the world to where I got my musicianship from.

My parents were rock ’n’ rollers in the late ’70s and ’80s.🤘

...they are why I’m a musician.

In 1978, my mom, Jean, joined a local Baltimore band called Mars. She married the band’s bassist, my dad, Elliot Freed, in 1980. In 1983, the band changed their name and became Freed At Last.

They went on to build a family of five, and one of their three kids followed in their musical footsteps...ME! 😎

I’ve recorded over 1,000 videos throughout my career, and nothing has been more special to me than this one.

I know this is a bass channel, but the head of the Freed family, my father, is the “original” bassist. Because of this, I’m putting down the bass and picking up guitar and drums while my parents hold down the fort at what they do best.

My parents came from the live music scene. They played bars, clubs, parties, and gigs, but rarely got to experience what it was like to take their music into a professional studio and capture it like this.

I wanted to give them that experience. And now we get to preserve it... forever. ❤️

So we went into the studio and recorded four songs from different eras of their musical lives as one continuous medley.

🎸 01 — “Heartbreaker” - Pat Benatar
🎸 02 — “Beds Are Burning” - Midnight Oil
🎸 03 — “Find Another Fool” - Quarterflash
🎸 04 — “One Eyed Bastard” - Green Day

The old footage you see in this video is real footage of my parents and their bands from decades ago. Some of these are the same songs we’re playing today.

Nearly 50 years later, they still sound pretty damn good.

Freed At Last is now…FREED AGAIN.
