Bassist Available for Performing, Recording and Private Instruction

Ashfield MA

Description

Hey there! I've been playing electric bass for 14 years, and started gigging out and recording in Baltimore, MD in 2014. I received my Bachelors in Music that same year from Berklee College of Music, and after 6 years full-timing I took a break to serve in the wildland firefighting world for the 2019-2021 seasons. I moved to the area during the pandemic and have been hunkered down since practicing on my own since, but am finally looking to play out, meet other working musicians in the area, and start teaching again. I love and have played many, many types of music, from country to jazz to hip-hop, though in the last few years I've been on a kick with string band and fiddle music, and the diaspora of latin music. My website is linked here if you'd like some samples of my playing and a little more background. Please reach out for gigs, jams, lessons, or just to talk music!
