Jason Momoa on how while playing Tool "my passion for bass really exploded"
A fun interview with actor Jason Momoa in Guitar World about his love of music and playing, bass in particular. It all started on the of 'Aquaman' where he had instruments, so his son was playing drums and his daughter was playing guitar. It was his assistant's birthday, "and she really loves Tool, so I borrowed a bass from my buddy and we all played 'Sober' for her", Momoa says, adding - "right then, my passion for bass really exploded". He says he likes Metallica, Pantera, Rage Against The Machine, Primus, Black Sabbath, Red Hot Chili Peppers, but there's also music outside the "hard" canon for him - "one of my gods in music is Tom Waits, but having said that, my goddess is probably Ani DiFranco. I was raised with Miles Davis and Janis Joplin, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor is one of my all-time favorites, too”.
