Linkin Park Bass Tech (Tracy Robar)
In this episode, I sit down with Tracy Robar, the man behind the thunder, serving as bass tech for Linkin Park. Tracy walks us through what it takes to keep the low end locked in for a band known for its massive, genre-defining sound. From maintaining gear under pressure to syncing up with the rhythm section every night, Tracy’s role is critical to the band's powerful live presence.
We talk about his day-to-day routines on tour, the evolution of Linkin Park’s bass rigs, and what it takes to stay sharp in one of the most demanding positions on the road. He also shares some incredible behind-the-scenes stories that fans and techs alike won’t want to miss.
This one is all about precision, reliability, and the often-overlooked magic that holds the mix together, the bass.
