For
Bass Players Only recently sat down with Trevolr Bolder of Uriah Heep
for a chat. Read excerpts below:
FBPO:
How would you describe your musical upbringing?
TB: I
come from a family of musicians. I started playing trumpet when I was
9. This allowed me to join a brass band and start my musical
upbringing and understanding. I also soloed on the cornet, which is a
similar role to that of a solo violinist. When the Beatles came
along, however, I thought I would take up the guitar. I joined my
brother’s band, but, because he was on the guitar – and I was the
youngest – I was assigned the bass. Looking back, it was the best
move I ever made!
FBPO:
Can you identify a turning point in your life where you realized,
undoubtedly, that you were going to make a career out of music?
TB: Ever
since the age of 12, I’ve always wanted a career in music. I was
going to join the military so I could play in the military band,
however, my mother would not allow me. Thankfully, along came rock &
roll!
