Of all the educational accoutrements available to bassists, this is one that should be in your “bag.” Jason’s high-energy approach to virtually everything he does (check out his You Tube channel) coupled with solid production values makes his podcast series rewarding to all listeners— No...Read full review »

Jason Heath is a pillar of the online (and in person) bass community. I’ve literally been listening to the podcast for over a decade and it was one of the resources that got me fired up about music and bass before I went to college. The interviews are always interesting and Jason has a way of...Read full review »

Jason has amassed perhaps the largest collection of interviews, articles, reviews, and blogs on the double bass in the world beyond the International Society of Bassists. He is our favorite “man on the street” colleague who delights in sharing what the world has to offer rather than promote his...Read full review »

Jason brings his A game every time he steps behind the mic, and knows how to bring out the very best in his guests. This show is a true asset to musicians and the podcasting community at large. Bravo!

Playing an instrument is more about just the technical skills or even the musical artistry involved. It's also about participating in a culture around the instrument and the music. Contrabass Conversations has been the best way imaginable of bringing me into this wonderful culture of the...Read full review »

This podcast gives me, as an amateur bass player, a wonderful entree into the full world of the string bass

I just love this podcast. Jason's ease of style with his guests makes you feel like you're in the room with them having coffee. I love tuning in to hear bass players and other musicians, as well! The one about Jason's early podcasting experiences and goofs had me laughing out loud....Read full review »

Contrabass Conversations has changed the way I practice and organize my resources; keeps me motivated even at 67 years old and even though my instrument is electric bass, not double. Listening time well spent. Get this app and enjoy broadening your perspective.

Jason, I love the podcast but sometimes the interview-ees phoning in on cell phones or SKYPE are very difficult to impossible to understand. I've had to dump episodes I really wanted to listen to because I couldn't understand what-the-hell the interview subject was saying, sometimes...Read full review »

I love these podcasts. Great interviews. There is very little media related to the double bass out there so this is such a jewel and great resource for the DB community. The last episode happened almost a year ago so I hope that wasn't the end!Read full review »
