CINCINNATI (Brad Underwood) -- For Northside resident Nick Lloyd, its all that bass. The deep tones of the largest and lowest pitched bowed string instrument have been a giant part of his life since he first saw the towering instrument in the fourth grade. Soon, Lloyd will get the chance to introduce one of his loves to the people of Karachi, Pakistan thanks to an exchange trip sponsored by the United States State Department. "It's a way of introducing other cultures to traditional American culture, said Lloyd. We have a rich history and I want to go there and play this music." Lloyd is playing as a member of the Kentucky Winders, a four piece band made up of a fiddle, guitar, banjo and upright bass. The band will play pre-Civil War fiddle tunes, old-time Appalachian music and some blues. Music the people of Pakistan have never heard or seen played. The audience will include dignitaries and scholars but most importantly to Lloyd, children in a Pakistani orphanage. "I'm bringing a magic marker and I'm going to have the kids at the orphanage sign the back of the bass with their names. So when I come home I just want the bass coverage in these kids names, said Lloyd. Since the early 1990s, its been more about the craftsmanship than playing the bass for Lloyd. He is one of a dozen artists in the United States that build the instruments; he also makes repairs for musicians. As a luthier ( bass maker) it took Lloyd years of apprenticing, training and practice. But as a result of that hard work, word has spread of his work and he sells basses to musicians all over the world. "It takes a while to build a reputation. People ask me how many basses can I make in a year? The real question is how many can I sell in a year, said Lloyd. At the moment, Lloyd is working on his thirtieth bass. Its almost finished with about 12 more hours of work left to be done. Lloyd says it takes him about six weeks to complete one bass but hes excited to take a week off and give the people of Karachi a show theyve never seen. Honestly Ill have no reason to go to Pakistan probably ever in my life, said Lloyd. So to do it this way through music and the state department, I said yes immediately. This exchange program sponsored by the State Department has been around since the 1960s. Most of the band going this time has been on this type of trip before to places like Kyrgyzstan and Ecuador but this is the first for Pakistan. Lloyd says there will also be a local band with them playing traditional Pakistani music and the two bands will also play shows together. For more information on Nick Lloyd Basses CLICK HERE.
