Thank You Bass Player Live will feature eight New England bass players performing individual sets, giving the instrument that normally sits behind the singer or guitarist an entire night in the spotlight.

The lineup includes Tim Doucette, Jason Skulls, Kelsea Brumaghim, Michael Mendonca, Nathan Sanel, Christopher Beaton, Shane McWilliams and John Clifford.

D’Addario donated strings for every performer, and Manchester Music Mill is supporting the event with a professional bass amp.

It is free, all ages, donations accepted, with a one-drink minimum.
