0:00.0	Hey guys, how's it going? Scott here again from Scott's Bass Lessons.com and I'm here with episode
0:05.0	25 of the Scott's Bass Lessons podcast. And today we have got the amazing Jerry Meen withers.
0:12.2	Now, Jerry is a super experienced bass player on stage and in the studio as well. He actually runs
0:18.4	his own studio. He's played bass for the likes of Robbie Williams.
0:22.7	He was the bass player on The Voice, you know, that TV show with a spinny round chairs where people
0:27.7	get voted on or off. I think my wife watches it anyway, and I do watch it sometimes.
0:32.9	Who's the bass player for the voice right now? I can't remember who it is. But yeah, Jerry,
0:37.8	Jerry was the bass player for the voice when that first hit the screen over here in the
0:42.1	UK. And he also runs his own studio as well called Wendy House Productions. I'll link to
0:48.0	that in the show notes so you can check it out. And we think, you know, that studio's worked
0:52.4	with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Kylie Minogue, Adele, Sam Smith, Ellie Golden, Ed Shearin, John Legend, Jesse Jay. I'm sure you get the idea.
1:02.7	And so it's going to be a really, really great episode of this. You're going to learn a lot of stuff.
1:06.7	And Jerry has got a really interesting background as well. He actually went to music school from a super,
1:14.1	super young age and was a classical musician and then really got into the bass and the rock and roll
1:22.1	as a kind of later on in his career. So great story and I'll let him tell you all about it in this show.
1:30.0	Now, first of all, I also want to give a shout out to everybody that's been in contact about I-Base magazine.
1:35.9	If you didn't hear last week, I-Base magazine is now coming under the Scots Bass Lessons umbrella.
1:42.7	It's coming into the family.
1:46.2	I-Base magazine is a killer online base magazine. It's app-based so you can get it on iPhone and Android and tablet and
1:53.4	all those shenanigans, which is really fantastic and I'm really excited about it because it really
1:59.6	gives us as publishers the opportunity to put video within the magazine and backing tracks, play along tracks, all of these kind of things, and it really opens up all of those doors.
2:11.3	So I'm really excited about it and I'm really excited that it's coming under the Scots Bass Lesson's Umbrella now.
