I'm back after a couple of weeks away from work, and feeling ready to get back to the bass! 💪 What's everyone working on? Anyone doing a September reset with their bass playing? It feels like a good time to refocus on our practice routines.

Thank you, PBS NewsHour. 🙏🏾 @NewsHour
As a bass extraordinaire, big band leader, composer and educator, Christian McBride has been called one of the hardest-working men in jazz. He’s as comfortable performing with jazz icons as he is with artists like Sting and Billie Eilish. Senior arts correspondent @JeffreyBrown recently met McBride at his hometown jazz festival for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.
