Interview With Bassist Richie Kotzen

Richie Kotzen…

I am always impressed by musicians who can play and sing simultaneously. I am even in greater awe of these multi-instrumentalists who are highly proficient on many instruments.

Richie Kotzen is one of these very talented musicians. His upcoming (September 27, 2024) album “Nomad” is proof as he plays every instrument in all but two tracks and does it amazingly well.

Richie’s main strength is as a vocalist/guitar player and he has played with some of the best bassists in the business but in “Nomad”, he holds down the low end nicely.

Join me as we hear about Richie’s musical journey, details about “Nomad” how he gets his sound, how bass fits into his musical toolbox, and his plans for the future.
