Matt Bell

In this episode, I dig into gear, style and rock and roll rhythm playing with the host of the Rockstar Violinist Podcast, Matt Bell. Matt breaks down the bowing for the main rhythm riff of his version of Zappa‘s tune ”My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama”, retitled ”My Fiddle Wants to Kill Your Mama” and then we quiz the rockstar violinist on...Rockstar Video Games, the video game company.

For the Greater Groove: The Future of Strings is a collection of chats/jams with some of the leaders in the progressive string playing community. The focus is on grooving and playing rhythm strings, like rhythm guitar. Grooving is the crucial entry point into our popular musical culture and something virtually ignored in traditional classical training. Besides chatting about grooving and related issues, and anything else my guests want to chat about, many shows include a ”Groove Hacker” segment in which we take a groove from a recording and recreate it on strings. And every show ends with a segment called called ”Not My Gig”, a 3 question trivia quiz on a subject the I’m hoping my guest knows nothing about. https://www.tracysilverman.com https://www.strumbowing.com
