Bassist Janis Wallin is the “Mistress of Groove” of the jam band scene. With decades of experience, she’s the bass teaching, vegetarian-eating, Bootsy-loving trail blazer with an alter ego.

In This Episode

- Why it took nine years for her band band Family Groove Company to finish their newest album titled “Through With Tomorrow”

- The story behind a personal invite to join legendary bassist Victor Wooten — with only 10 minutes to show time

- How to prepare for playing in multiple bands who improvise on hundreds of songs

- Her sidekick Bootsy and her rap-lovin’ alter ego (you may see her on stage!)
