Harrison Bankhead
 
well-known Chicago bassist plays with a number of combos, from mainstream to avant-garde (Witches and Devils). Says the Chicago Reader jazz critic Neil Tesser, "Bankhead's playing is firmly rooted in a Chicago bass lineage that stretches back to Milt Hinton and includes Wilbur Ware and Malachi Favors; the dry warmth of both his tone and his melodies has proved welcome, even comforting, in the many contexts in which he's performed."

You can hear him accompanying Grazyna Auguscik on her new CD, Don't Let Me Go (GMA).
