    The new docu-series Geddy Lee Asks: Are Bass Players Human Too?  premieres today (December 5th) on Paramount+, and Consequence is offering an exclusive clip from the episode featuring the RUSH frontman and Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic.

    The four-part series follows Geddy Lee as he partakes in random tasks and endeavors with fellow bass players. Most of the activities are decidedly non-musical, as we discovered in our previous exclusive clip in which Les Claypool shows Geddy how to use an excavator.

    On the other hand, the episode with Novoselic is a bit more domestic, as Geddy finds himself in the Nirvana bassist’s kitchen among many homegrown vegetables (Novoselic would appear to be quite the gardener).

    After donning an apron, Geddy gets right to work on a can of roasted tomatoes.

    “You’re a natural,” exclaims Krist off the jump before placing the jar in bowling water to sterilize it.

    “High drama,” jokes Geddy.

    As the two discuss the parallels between canning and playing bass, they hear a loud crack in the background: the jar broke when it hit the water.

    In the other episodes, Lee meets up with Robert Trujillo (Metallica) and Melissa Auf der Maur (ex-Smashing Pumpkins, ex-Hole).

    “The idea for this show was born out of interviews I did for my first book, The Big, Beautiful Book of Bass,” commented Lee in a press release for the docu-series. “I was struck that these accomplished musicians also lived incredibly interesting, multifaceted lives offstage.”

    In addition to promoting the new docu-series and releasing solo material, Lee is currently at the tail end of a book tour in support of his new memoir, My Effin’ Life. Tickets to the remaining shows are available here.

    Below you can watch the clip of Novoselic teaching Lee how to can. Visit Paramount+ for more on the new docu-series.
