Bass player Glade Rasmussen is known for his tone; a tone you feel as much as hear. His adventure started west of Memphis, he learned to walk in Japan, spent time in the oil fields of OK and started playing in a small delta town in Northern California, when his Air Force Dad brought home a cheap guitar. Glade drives the low end with authority, the obvious result of years of playing, recording and touring with diverse talents like Bo Diddley, Jon Gindick, Alastair Greene, Rick Reeves, Brian Buel, C.P. Krunt, Target, House of Games, and San Francisco Bay Area legends Alvon Johnson, Chris Cobb, Daniel Castro, Francis Clay, Bobby Webb and Alvin Sykes. Both gifted musician and skilled technician, a short list of his production and technical clients reads like a "Who's Who"; Joe Satriani, Sammy Hagar, Bob Seegar, Kenny Loggins, Hiroshima, Reba McEntire, Barbara Mandrell and B.B. King.
