My Weekly Mixtape Album Dive: Eric Bass Presents… “I Had A Name” (w/ Eric Bass of Shinedown)

This week, ⁠Shinedown⁠’s ⁠Eric Bass⁠ joins me to take a deep dive into his debut solo concept album “I Had A Name;” the graphic novel that he’s working on alongside of the release; & the stories behind album tracks such as “Mind Control,” “Goodnight Goodnight,” “Azalia” & so much more!  

And, of course we found some time to talk a little Shinedown as well, including: how his role in the band has evolved since joining during “The Sound Of Madness” cycle; solely producing the band’s last two studio records “Attention Attention” & “Planet Zero” (both of which were concept albums); their cover of Carole King’s “I Feel The Earth Move,” which was recorded at Henson Studios for their “The Warner Sound Live Room” EP; and the scoop behind several upcoming songs that will be featured on Shinedown # 8 (which the band is currently working on)!  

Be sure to visit⁠ MyWeeklyMixtape.com⁠ to hear all of the songs we discussed in this episode, and join the My Weekly Mixtape Discord Server via the link on the episode page!

Theme music is "Unveiled" by ⁠The 4th⁠. You can find the album on ⁠Spotify⁠, ⁠Apple Music⁠, ⁠Amazon Music⁠, ⁠Pandora⁠, ⁠YouTube⁠, ⁠Bandcamp⁠ & more!
