What is Slap Bass Rockabilly Music and How do I do it?

Rockabilly Double Bass Instrument
My new red double bass! 

🎸 Rockabilly is a lively music style that emerged in the 1950s, blending elements of country, blues, and early rock ‘n’ roll. It’s characterized by its upbeat tempo, twangy guitar riffs, and slap bass technique. Let’s dive into the details:

  1. Slap Bass Technique:

    • Slap bass is a distinctive technique used primarily on the upright bass (double bass) in rockabilly music.
    • It involves plucking the strings with the fingers while simultaneously slapping the fingerboard with the palm of the hand.
    • The result is a percussive, rhythmic sound that adds energy and drive to the music.
  2. How It Works:

    • Single Slap: Start by grabbing the string, pulling it back, and releasing it.
    • Double Slap: Similar to the single slap, but hit the fingerboard with your hand as you come down.
    • Triple Slap: Add another hit on the fingerboard before releasing the string.
    • Quad Slaps: There are three types:
      • Flat Quads: Specific patterns of hitting the fingerboard, string, and thumb.
      • Drag Quads: Combining drag slaps with triplets.
      • Chop Quads: A unique pattern for variety.
  3. Rockabilly Music Style:

    • Roots: Rockabilly originated in the American South, drawing from country, blues, and hillbilly music.
    • Artists: Notable rockabilly artists include Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash.
    • Characteristics:
      • Driving Rhythm: Upbeat and danceable.
      • Twangy Guitars: Fender Telecasters and Gretsch guitars are common.
      • Slap Bass: Essential for that authentic rockabilly sound.
      • Vocals: Often feature a distinctive Southern accent.
      • Lyrics: Themes of love, cars, and rebellion.
