My Take
Calum Hood is the kind of musician I gravitate toward: the steady engine rather than the obvious star. Born in Mount Druitt, New South Wales, he is the bassist and a vocalist for 5 Seconds of Summer, one of Australia's most successful musical exports, with over ten million albums sold and billions of streams. I love that his contribution is foundational rather than flashy. A great bassist gives pop-rock its weight and pulse, and Hood does exactly that. To me, he is the grounded craftsman who keeps the band honest beneath all the bright hooks.
