Rock House Method and Freekbass Teachin' the Funk

Rock House Method is on top of their game when it comes to music instruction. Rock House currently has two new instructional DVDs featuring funk bass guitarist, Freekbass. Freekbass hails from Cincinnati, Ohio and is best known for blending in old-school funk with newer age styles. He has played with the likes of Bernie Worrell, keyboardist for Parliament and formerly of The Talking Heads, as well as legendary bassist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Bootsy Collins. Public Enemy says in their song, "Don't Believe the Hype", but I urge you to very much believe the hype when it comes to Freekbass. This funky, bass guitarist originally from Cincy is keepin' it real and keepin' that funk alive.
