Or "session musician". The people who make the music you hear on TV and radio
commercials
, film
soundtrack
s, or even your fave hit
CD
. Generally faceless, but here's part of one
family tree
: you see
Will Lee
on TV, but you've also heard him sing and play bass on commercials (you may also have seen him singing in the
Orange Bowl
halftime show a few years ago);
Paul Shaffer
got a big break in the 70s, after
Roy Bittan
's
E Street Band
duties took him out of the studio.
