USA Today article - Jan 2014

“Get Lucky,” the monster hit single by French duo Daft Punk, turned one year old earlier this month. By coincidence, renowned session bassist Nathan East released a video for his track, “Daft Funk,” which plays on his association with the group, almost a year to the date of the initial release of “Get Lucky” on April 19, 2013.

A Conversation with Harvey Mason

Mike Ragogna: Hey, is this The Chameleon?

Harvey Mason: [laughs] This is the Chameleon! Hey Mike, how are you doing, buddy?

MR: I’m pretty good, how’ve you been?

HM: Pretty great! Just fantastic.

MR: Yeah, I know, it looks like it. You’ve got a new album, Fourplay’s been doing great, and everything’s on the up and up with you right now.

HM: Yeah, I can’t complain, everything’s been great, I’ve just been having a great time, loving life and loving music and I’m going to continue to grow.

MR: Speaking of that, what do you think of the new album? What’s your impression of this Chameleon?

Nathan East Picks 10 Essential Bass Albums

by on May.05, 2014, under News

October 2013

Over the course of his 35-year career, Nathan East has worked with the crème de la crème of the music world: Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Phil Collins, Whitney Houston, Randy Newman, Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Quincy Jones – and, of course, Eric Clapton, with whom he’s recorded and toured with since 1985.
