Sounds Like"He plays solo bass guitar like Victor Wooten, sings songs like John Mayer and Ani DiFranco, and performs with the intensity of Martin Sexton. He's a freak of nature, and he's phenonmenal."

Seth Horan is a touring singer/songwriter. And there are thousands of those. He left RCA band Vertical Horizon in 1998, right on the brink of that bands multi-platinum success, and decided to play his songs alone on his bass rather than pick up the traditional six-string acoustic guitar hailed as the universal standard for songwriters. He did this to push the envelope of modern songwriting and performance; he did it to see how far he could go while still being accepted by the mainstream; he did it to explore a new sound in a market that becomes more homogenized every day. But most importantly, he did it because he has been a bass player since he was twelve years old, and he really, really, really sucks at guitar.

Originally hailing from Buffalo NY, he has been touring the USA (literally) since March of 2002, building a sizable following and turning heads with his blend of fingerpicking, slapping, tapping, harmonics, and chording to accompany his voice. To say that Horan plays the bass like a guitar is a vast understatement. More to the point, he plays it like a dulcimer, a drum set, a harp, and a xylophone all at the same time.

This quote from the Ocean City Beachcomber sums it up: "He plays solo bass guitar like Victor Wooten, sings songs like John Mayer and Ani DiFranco, and performs with the intensity of Martin Sexton. Hes a freak of nature, and hes phenomenal."

After a two year relationship with (now defunct) Benchmark Records, culminating in the 2004 release of "Conduit", Horan went independent once again, releasing the five-song EP, "Happenstance" in 2007, and has just released his first DVD, "Between Two Oceans", which documents his career from 2001 to the present.

We enjoyed your show in St. Louis, Seth. I brought the camera, didn't take a shot. Noticed the same about another party that brought a camera.

No time for camera stuff...too much musical good-stuff for the ears and mind. Taking pictures would have been time that I would have had to give up putting my ears, head and heart into what you accomplished in that venue.

Forever thanks, Seth.

Next year you need to play up at Sundance Film Festival. You are way better than the bands that were there. They were all garage bands. Ha! Hope life is treating you well. Say hi to Gina.

So I ordered a couple of your CD's as Christmas presents from CD Baby. Those are some interesting folks over there...something about a gold-lined box...or something.

I hope all is well--and I hope there's real gold in the box! :-)

Hey! Your ping from the unseen ether hits like megawatt sonar in a pod of orcas. This week, I'm down south in Las Glitz to protect the vote. The medical situation and political work have kept me off the fingerboard, but I'm fired up to go again. Inspiration for your next cover art: the two pit bulls who cornered me canvasing a nice house for votes a few days ago. They ripped up my jacket, but didn't break my skin. Pippa could take note. I'll be back soon. Am anxious to hear the new record. -Mike
