Christian Musician Summit - Bass and Drums

Grooving for Heaven - Volume 4

From Bass Pyrotechnics to Art

Pondering Bass Technique emerges as the first Grooving for Heaven volume dedicated to the advanced techniques employed in the modern bass vocabulary. As opposed to presenting a "glossary of riffs", Norm demystifies these techniques to allow the committed bassist to assimilate them for the broadest possible range of artistic expression. Features performances (A Tender NAMM Moment, Pondering the Sushi, The Star Spangled Banner, and more) from his critically-acclaimed solo debut, Pondering the Sushi.
