Hey guys, how's it going? Scott's Bass Lessons.com and I'm back with you with another episode of the SPL podcast. And today we've got Simon Little with us.

Simon is a bass player from here in the UK and is bass player for one of my favourite ever bands, The Divine Comedy.

I'm not sure who out there has heard the Divine Comedy, but over here in the UK, they were huge.

Multiple top 10 hits, if not top five, and multiple number ones.

And the songwriter for the Divine Comedy is just absolutely fantastic lyricist as well.

I absolutely recommend checking them out.

And in this podcast, we're going to talk about, well, Simon's journey to hooking up with

the band and how he got into it.

It's really interesting.

And it's a great example of why you should never knock a gig back because even if it's a

crappy gig, you might get a really great gig from it.

And then we're going to talk about their

recording process that they use and the writing process that the leader of the Divine Comedy

uses and what Simon gets and how he can, how he can sometimes change what he's being given. And

then sometimes how he has to stick very very closely to

it so it's really really interesting and i think you're going to really dig this interview now

if you're listening to the podcast on iTunes i'll send you all of my base love if you subscribe

and leave a review as that really helps us get the word out about these interviews guys and i

really think there's so much

to be learned from listening to great bass players such as the guests that we have on the show

and if you're listening to this anywhere else other than scotsbacelessons.com make sure you shoot over

to the site and check out the show notes for this episode as I've put some fantastic videos up.
