T.M. Stevens
T.M. Stevens (Thomas Stevens) est un bassiste américain.
Il a participé à nombre de productions internationales : Joe Cocker (Unchain My Heart, One Night Of Sins, Tina Turner (Foreign Affairs), James Brown ou encore Steve Vai.
Mais c’est avant tout un artiste solo. Il mélange le groove du funk et de la soul avec l’énergie et la hargne du hard rock. Si sa virtuosité à la basse n’est plus à démontrer, il ne faut pas passer à côté de ses qualités de chanteur et de frontman qui font des shows de T.M. Stevens une fiesta fusion tout public.
T.M. Stevens qualifie lui-même sa musique de Heavy Metal Funk en référence aux mélodies, le côté funk du rythme et la lourdeur du son à travers l’utilisation d’instruments ou d’effets extrêmes.
Entre Funkadelic, modern-jazz, heavy metal et groove, ce super bassiste tape dans tous les registres en apportant sa touche artistique qui fait de chaque composition un titre unique et racé.
