Nick Fyffe: From Leaving Jamiroquai to Playing with Deep Purple

What does it feel like to leave one of the biggest funk bands in the world… and then walk on stage with Deep Purple? 🎸🔥 In this episode, Rob Cass sits down with Nick Fyffe — former bassist of Jamiroquai — to unpack the wild, honest, and sometimes chaotic journey behind his career.Nick shares how he originally wanted to be a drummer, how discovering Hendrix shifted his direction, and how a simple moment — “You play bass” — changed everything. Inspired by Flea, he fell in love with the sound of the instrument and soon found himself in the band everyone wanted to be in: Jamiroquai. We talk about the pressure, the surreal high-stakes gigs (including flying to Germany for a soundcheck on the same day he got the call), and the hard truth behind leaving the band — “bad life choices” and lessons learned.Beyond the headlines, this conversation dives into musicianship and mindset: subbing for Roger Glover in Deep Purple through Ian Paice’s connections, playing with The Temperance Movement, producing music for passion rather than money, and why Nick loves playing but not practicing. He even performs his five favorite basslines live 🎶 Honest, reflective, and refreshingly real — this episode is about risk, groove, and finding the right people to create the right sound.
