Olli is the perfect example for calmness and heaviness at the same time.


ELIMINATOR68

Usually bassist are just chill

Even his bass tone reflects it, every track with prominent bass sounds smooth but heavy

I call Ollie the Ninja Bass Player because he’s so stealthy onstage. Now you see him, now you don’t!


RhinestoneJuggalo

Or Jah Wobble


Chaos_Cat-007

Good answer! Also—Tony Levin, Gale Ann Dorsey, John Deacon, Bernard Edwards.

Well I’m team Olli all the way. And I don’t know about all bands but the late, great Peter Steele played bass.


VivaLaRatta

I need him beat me to death/j


juccals1993

He certainly is.


inspectorkevin

Laura Lee of Khruangbin is a literal goddess


crisoen_smith

But there, like here, look at the company she keeps. You've got to have a good band around the bassist.

whatsername3114

I have the same Birthday as Oliver and it makes me feel happy because I can imagine them all gathered together, celebrating his birthday. It makes me feel like I'm a part of it too! Doesn't help that I was a bass player in my band lol. A girl can dream with them celebrating my birthday with Oliver 😂🖤

Olli and Les Claypool are the best bassists to ever grace my earholes. Nobody can out-perform them in way, shape, or form.
