Bio / Background
George Porter Jr.
A brief look at George Porter JR's career will prove that he is the premier bass player and performer. Unmatched and in a league of his own, his career has spanned more than thirty years, working with artists as diverse as Robbie Robertson and Earl King. Beginning in the Mid 60's, his career started with Eddie Bo and Irving Bannister and his All-stars.
His recording career also began at that time, recording hundreds of songs with Allen Toussaint, Marshall Seahorn, Earl King, Lee Dorsey, and Johnny Adams. His more recent recordings read like a roster of today's popular stars, including The Headhunters, Albert King, Aaron Neville, Paul McCartney, Tori Amos, Robert Palmer, David Byrne, Robbie Robertson, Patti Labelle and Dr. John. His songs appear everywhere, from the soundtrack of 8 Mile to the CDs of John Scofield and String Cheese Incident.
