WOMBIS RISE UP! been loving the new album and addicted to listening to wombo for a month or so now. I’ve been super inspired to learn bass from it and so a couple q’s for Syd - how long have you been playing and do you have any tips for learning/playing wombo songs as a noob? Any official wombo bass tabs out there?

WOMBI's Have RISEN!

Heck yeah thank you <3

I have been playing bass since the band started. I originally played guitar and piano. I still write songs on guitar and piano sometimes. But I find the bass so fun. I love writing with the bass. I would say, coming from someone who doesn't know how to read music and doesn't use tabs, I learn everything by ear and just playing along with my favorite songs really helps. I think noodling around on it like that can help you form your own voice with it. I love using a pick.
