Hey guys, how's it going? Scott here from the Scott's Bassist's podcast again. And today we've got the

amazing Mark Saunders with us from Florence and the Machine. And I really think you are going to

into the interview, I also want to give a huge shout out to everybody that's been sending in the thank

you messages for the last course that we released into the academy. I know a lot of you

academy members out there are absolutely loving the course. The course, if you missed it,

was with Phil Mann, who is a fantastic base educator. He's taught out and teaches out still at the Florida

Music School called the Players School of Music, which was founded by the amazing bass player
