    Road Life #46 with - Alan Beeler Bass Player Rick Monroe and the Hitmen

    Alan Beeler Bass Player for Rick Monroe and the Hitmen has always loved going deep, so it makes sense that he would pick up a bass.
    He currently resides with his mother and cat, as most bass players do, and enjoys the meth-like high of going through excel spreadsheets and color coding various lengths of wire.
    He also plays the banjo…’nuff said, am I right?”

    Road Life #45 Interview with - Scott Bartlett Guitarist Saving Abel

    Road Life #45 Interview with - Scott Bartlett Guitarist Saving Abel

    Scott Bartlett is best known as the lead guitarist for Southern Rock group Saving Abel (“Addicted”, “18 Days”) but has been creating music under his own brand for years as well. 
    Bartlett’s original music has been described as “decidedly southern rock” influenced heavily by his favorite group, The Allman Brothers Band. He says, “I’m a singer-songwriter that writes from experience, but to me it can all be categorized as rock n’ roll. That’s because of the way I play guitar.” In 2014 he released his first EP as a solo artist followed by multiple independent releases as well as several tracks as part of a duo dubbed, “Mad Souls.” His current single, “Sweeter Than Whiskey”, was released in March and is quickly proving to be a fan favorite.
    Always looking for growth and expansion opportunities, he recently purchased Young Avenue Sound, a first of its kind recording studio in Memphis.  
    While touring with Saving Abel keeps his calendar full in addition to his independent touring, he has grown and diversified his personal brand by creating and promoting his own custom clothing line under the umbrella of The SB Creations.
