Ben Musa: Kirkland's Master of the Big and Booming Stand-Up Bass
YOU MIGHT have found yourself swaying in your shoes, moving to the deep rhythms of Ben Musa鈥檚 huge double bass if you happened to be in the crowd at the recent DennyFest down at Kirkland's O.O. Denny Park.
Bursts of full, rounded notes sailed off the low, resonant strings of Musa鈥檚 six-foot stand-up bass and into the audience, as people sat along the Lake Washington waterfront or strolled the shore.
The Finn Hill-based folk quartet Natch鈥檒 Thang was doing an all-acoustic improvisation of the '60s signature song by Crosby, Stills & Nash, Wooden Ships.
