August 7, 2009

Treble Radio conducted an interview with former MEGADETH and current F5 bassist David Ellefson on July 28, 2009. The chat is now available for streaming using the audio player below.

For a limited time, Ellefson is offering online bass guitar instruction, music-business consulting and artist coaching through the American Rock Star Academy. These sessions are done on a private one-on-one basis through www.therockdoctors.net.

Commented David: "This forum will allow me to further expand on the topics I discuss on David Ellefson's Rock Shop through YouTube, in an individual and direct setting with musicians and artists around the world.

"Stop by the site now to schedule a lesson or consulting session."

Ellefson has posted the latest episode in "David Ellefson's Rock Shop", an ongoing YouTube video series hosted by the bassist himself. The new clip, titled "Getting Paid", features David discussing the differences between various royalties and explains how they are paid to musicians and artists. Watch the clip below.

Commented Ellefson: "I'm always asked questions from fans and other musicians about playing the bass, the business side of our industry, and music in general. So, I decided to create these regular video webisodes as a way to inform and respond to many of those questions."

In addition to numerous gold and platinum records and seven Grammy-nominated works, David is the author of the book "Making Music Your Business" and has two metal bass guitar instructional DVDs through Rock House Method entitled "Metal Bass Vol. 1" and "Vol. 2". He is also a featured bass clinician, keynote speaker and panelist on the subject of music and the music industry.
