Upton Bass:

UB Deluxe Hybrid SuperSwing

 
Greetings!

Welcome the the first installment of The Upton Report, a weekly eMail-zine for the double bass.  I am trying for a weekly report on interesting double bass related stories, media and news from around the web.  I can't do it alone...so if you find interesting content during the week, please submit it to me and if it makes the cut, I'll share it with the double bass world.  From YouTube videos to a favorite forum thread or news article...if it pertains to the double bass, eMail it to me at [email protected].
 
Sincerely,

Low Notes For Nashville
http://www.lownotesfornashville.org/
Low Notes for Nashville is a group of dedicated bassists whose mission is to help our brother and sister musicians affected by the Nashville flooding. For musicians, nothing is more devastating than the loss of the tools of your trade. We  form a relationship with our instruments, forged on years of learning, loving, and performing together. Emotions are shared between the two, a bond that can never be replaced or reproduced. We feel for their loss, and hope to lessen the sting. Can you help?

My good friend Harvie S sent along this YouTube link.  OK, it's not a double bass...but it's interesting enough and it's from Harvie S!
(Please note: there is no ey in Harvie, no period after S)

Beer & Jazz?
That's it, I'm moving to England...
The Greenwich Beer and Jazz festival is, quite simply, a 5 day celebration of the best of both those things which takes place in the picturesque grounds of the Old Royal Naval College at the end of this month. Running from 12-11pm every day and boasting a fine array of musicians and beverages, the third year of this event promises to be a fun, relaxed way for London to usher in the summertime.
