Tour Talk #20 - Karina Rykman

Would you believe it, this is Episode 20 of Tour Talk! This time around we’re joined by Karina Rykman an amazing bass player who’s done everything from America’s Got Talent, jazz trio’s, riff rockin’ with our very own Nate right through to fronting her own band. 

We start by finding out what Karina’s all about, how she cut her teeth in the industry and what she’s aiming to achieve with her own    solo work. We learn how Nate and Karina met and how that led to a recent song writing session down in Nashville and all the intricacies that’s involved with bringing a batch of musicians together to develop some songs.

All off that leads us in to the spectrum of being a session musician , how you prepare, how to achieve what the artist is looking for while also being able to put your own stamp on it and we find out how Karina achieves her bass sound.

We learn how being a true New Yorker has had a massive impact on Karina’s approach to working in the industry and especially on the road, starting at just 18 years old! In Karina’s own words we’re in the fun business and we find out exactly what it takes to achieve that whilst touring.
