Last December (2024) some of our very good friends invited us to the Smith Center here in Las Vegas to check out a band I was unfamiliar with, the Huntertones.From the moment they took the stage this six-piece band came out swinging with super high energy and one of the tightest, most entertaining collections of music I have ever heard. Driving the low end, Adam DeAscentis did a superb job of tying the melody and the percussion elements, together with great skill. The horn section reminded me of early Chicago with its precision and smooth unison. And I was pleasantly surprised with Dan's tenor sax tone as it was so full and meaty. I later confirmed that he plays a 1954 Selmer (If I recall correctly); they don't make horns like that anymore.After we thoroughly enjoyed this show, I met Adam and made a connection for us to chat in more detail for this interview.Join me as we hear about Adam's musical journey, how he gets his sound, and interesting details about the Huntertones and their plans for the future.Here is Adam DeAscentis!This interview first appeared in Bass Musician Magazine in February 2025Go to jazzguitartoday.com and bassmusicianmagazine.com more interviews and lessons.

North Carolina's size disadvantage against the visiting SMU Mustangs was proven null and void early and often as the Tar Heels locked up the visitors on the defensive end for most of the night and flashed enough on the offensive end to cruise to the 82-67 win in the Smith Center. The trio of RJ Davis, Ian Jackson and Drake Powell combined for 61 points while the total team effort held SMU to just 33 percent shooting on the defensive end. The Inside Carolina crew of Dewey Burke and host Tommy Ashley break down the positive vibes the win has created for Hubert Davis's team and what lies ahead in Raleigh this Saturday afternoon.
