The one where Ant surprised everybody with his knowledge of Ableton...

According to Bass Guitar magazine Steve is 'Britains most innovative bass guitarist'. According to Steve he is a Bassist, Journalist and Academic. According to us he is a very fascinating, very passionate, very lovely bloke.

Over the course of the episode we (of course) delve into Steves career, but mainly through the prism of trying to establish what the hell it means to be a 'Solo Bass Player' and more importantly how do you turn it into a career. This brings us in turn to his early session and touring work, how he began writing and his fascination with innovation that has knitted these pieces together.

We also grapple with the slightly surreal notion of his recently diagnosed cancer being a positive career move.
