Actual Fiction

As a follow-up to fiercely uncompromising power trio project Slaughterhouse 3, bassist extraordinaire Gary Willis delivers a potent punch with Actual Fiction, his solo debut on the premier fusion label Abstract Logix. Joining the world-class electric bassist on this ambitious avant-groove outing is Willis's longtime bandmate in Tribal Tech, drummer Kirk Covington, along with drummer David Gomez. On frantic romps like the drum'n'bass flavored Cartoon Fetish and ultra-funky throwdowns like Smells Like a Party, If Only It Could Talk and PodCast, Willis blends remarkable chops along with an innate ability to groove hard on the low end. Now based in Spain, Willis remains one of the premier electric bassists on the international scene. His playing, composing and overall concept on Actual Fiction should elevate him to a new level of appreciation among bass connoisseurs.
