About
“The Icon Behind the Bass-line That Shaped Music History.”
Visionary bassist and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Chip Shearin has left his mark on music history, from his iconic bassline on the Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” to touring and recording with legends like Aretha Franklin, Janet Jackson, and Dizzy Gillespie. As President of the National Black Musicians Coalition, Shearin continues to shape the future of music while producing for major brands, as well as for film and television. His bass hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and his influence spans the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to the Smithsonian.
