This week Ellen is sitting down to talk bass with one of the most successful session bass players of all time: the great Nathan East.

Nathan is probably most famous for his work with music legends Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson and Phil Collins but his CV is ridiculously long and prestigious having worked with artists as diverse as Al Jarreau, Kenny Loggins, Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, Joe Satriani and Daft Punk. He’s also a member of the band Fourplay and released several solo albums.   

In this interview Nathan discusses his musical background, his approach to bass line creation and also talks about his touring gear of choice.
