I haven’t been sticking to my goal of posting a new video every week, but I’m going to try harder. Here’s my video for this week: my bass lesson for “Lounge Act” by Nirvana:

Ever since I listened to Nevermind in 1992, I knew that Krist Novoselic was a great rock and roll bass player. “Lounge Act” proves it. In this case, Kurt’s rhythm guitars are just that: they provide the backing rhythm for Krist’s intricate, yet catchy bassline.

Kurt Cobain’s voice, Krist’s bass playing, and Dave Grohl’s drumming set Nirvana apart from every other alternative rock and grunge band in the 1990s.

At a little over two-and-a-half minutes long, “Lounge Act” is a perfect pop rock song.

This is a great Nirvana song. It starts off with a tricky bass line, which I explain at the end of the video after going through the guitar chords.
