Billy Sheehan

Billy Sheehan has changed the way the bass guitar is played. Rising to cult status in the 80s with his Buffalo, NY-based band Talas, Billy was recruited by David Lee Roth when Roth left Van Halen in '85. He recorded two platinum-selling albums with the former Van Halen frontman before setting out on his own. Forming Mr. Big in 1989, the band achieved a Billboard #1 single in the US and 14 other countries with "To Be With You" from their 2nd Atlantic Records album release "Lean Into It". While developing his trademark style of playing he has performed over 4000 live gigs on every continent except Africa and Antarctica.

Fantastic Intro Course

I have been a musician for over 20 years. However, I've been in a lull for several years in terms of progress. In an effort to curb the plateau blues and get back at in a smarter and more effective way, I've taken to starting from the very beginning again. This was a fantastic reintroduction. An absolute must-watch!
