[Dixielandjazz] Interview with Ryan Gould at Art of Slap Bass

[Daniel Augustine]

Folks--
     Here's a nice demo and interview with Ryan Gould, who plays slap  
bass in a number of local OKOM bands in Austin.  The kinds of bands he  
plays in may hint at what kinds of traditional jazz are being played  
and listened to by younger audiences, both here in the U. S. and  
around the world.  Ryan's not only a friend of mine but is a fellow  
veteran (USMC) and likes to get other veterans who are also musicians  
together for lunch on November 11.
