Sam shares his story of getting started on bass, landing early opportunities with Housefires , and how that path led into the rise of Maverick City Music —including what it was really like going from church gigs to arenas and huge stages. They talk about the reality of touring (the good, the hard, and the unexpected), the importance of the people you’re surrounded by, and what it takes to stay grounded as opportunities grow. Of course, they also go deep on the gear: Sam walks through his bass lineup (including a PJ Custom Shop, a ‘92 Thunderbird with Lollar pickups, a G3, a Mustang, a Coronado, and more), his live setup with the Quad Cortex, and his “absolute unit” studio board—plus why the Noble DI is still the one piece he can’t live without. The episode wraps with rapid fire favorites, coffee talk, and practical advice for worship bassists and aspiring touring musicians who want to grow the right way. Grab your favorite cup of coffee and listen.","meta_description":"Episode 16 of Worship Bass Coffee features session and touring bassist Samuel Rady , a longtime “Insta-friend” of Jay’s whose playing you’ve probably hear…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6248,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/worship-bass-coffee-7410970/episodes/behind-the-bass-samuel-rady-on-maverick-city-and-more/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/worship-bass-coffee-7410970/behind-the-bass-samuel-rady-on-maverick-city-and-more.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
