The banjo was Mike Bub's first love, but not long after arriving in Nashville he discovered he could find more work playing the bass. He found himself onstage at the Grand Ole Opry, on tour with the likes of Bill Monroe, and in studios across Nashville. He played in Del McCurry's band for years. He's got some stories. Mike also became a regular at the Station Inn, what the calls the "last bastion" of the Music City he first encountered in the 1980s — full of legends and upstarts making a go at their craft as sunset began to fall on country music's golden age. He still plays a standing gig there on Monday nights, and if you can find it among the high-rises, you owe it to yourself to check out a show.
