Sam Rivers Bio


Name: Sam Rivers
Limp Bizkit: Bass
Age: 22

The youngest member of the band, and only 19 when Three Dollar Bill Y'all was released, Sam is an accomplished bassist, inspired by Seattle grunge and old rock including #800000 Sabbath and Megadeath.

Sam brings in the funky bassline on the band's tracks and has been compared to good friend Fieldy of Korn. They share a bass-playin' style of holding the bass upright. Whatever the style, Sam's brothers in Bizkit give him much props for his bass-playin' abilities. Sam hooked up with Fred in Bizkit's early days to form the band and their style of play. Looks like his hard work is paying off.

Sam's first job was at Chik-fil-A a mall in Jacksonville. He also played the tuba in a band at Arlington Middle.

Sam is sponsored by Ibanez.
