"Jazz Musicians Have It Easy" The Adam Neely Interview

Adam Neely is a bass player, band leader, YouTuber and much more as you're about to find out in this interview.

I sat down with him recently in NYC and got into what it takes to be a bass player and artist in 2025 and beyond.

We talk touring as a band leader, breaking the YouTube algorithm, and a little nerdy pedal chat thrown in for good measure.

This was the first time we were meeting in person, and it will hopefully be the first of many sit-down discussions as the music business evolves in the coming years.

Enjoy,

Janek
