Are there any bass players that sing lead?!


Question: Drummers are uncommon enough to be notable: e.g., Karen Carpenter, Phil Collins, Ringo Starr. But what about bassists? Even when I was in a church choir, the bassists never sang. I've seen videos of Bernard Edwards (Chic) singing backup, but never lead.

Sting - The Police
Amy Mann - Til Tuesday
Kim Deal - Pixies (sometimes)

Mark Hoppus - Blink 182
Kenny Vasoli - The Starting Line
That guy from Fall Out Boy

theres a million others but i cant think of them right now

Sting, Tony Scalzo from Fastball are two that I can think of.

Geddy Lee of rush,
Les Claypool of primus,
Lemmy of motorhead,
Tom Araya of Slayer
Sting of the Police

Motorhead, Primus, Rush and Slayer have bass player/singers.

Paul McCartney - The Beatles
Geddy Lee - Rush
Sting - The Police

If the world can have a flutist play and be the lead singer as Jethro Tull was, then nothing should surprise you.

sean c is wrong but close enough..
tom delonge was the lead singer and guitarist for blink 182.. mark hoppus did sing quite a bit though.
im in a band and my lead singer is the bassist.

Gene Simmons
