You have almost definitely heard Adam Blackstone’s playing, even if you have not heard his name. When a megastar performer needs a bassist and/or MD, he is often the first port of call – and Blackstone has worked with everyone from Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, through to Alicia Keys, Questlove, Jay-Z and Rihanna.
A virtuoso who’s equally at home playing jazz onstage at the Grammys with Robert Glasper to overseeing the Oscars music, or playing/directing four Super Bowl Half Time shows – Blackstone can now add a signature bass to his list of glittering accomplishments: the Jackson Gladys Pro Series Concert Bass.
