I am a 16 year old bass player and have been playing electric bass for twelve years, and Upright Bass for five, taking advantage of as many venues and opportunities as possible, and continuing to search for a group of people to play with on a regular basis. In the past, ever since I began to take on my first gigs, I currently and have always played with older well experienced musicians, due to my well advanced ability and gift I have in regards to the electric and Upright bass. I began private lessons in Upright bass five years ago and Electric bass twelve years ago, I currently am still enrolled in both of those partaking in sessions weekly. I have taken lessons from multiple professional bassist over the course of twelve
years. I currently am the bass player at First Baptist Church of Sevierville, TN and play for other venues such as weddings, fundraising benefits, and have played with the award winning Ocean Annie's Southside Band of Myrtle beach. I play most all genres of music which consist of: Funk, Jazz, R&B, Country, Rock, Southern Rock, Cover/Tribute, Blues, Pop, 60's ,70's, 80's 90's, Big Band, Reggae, and other additional genres. I continue to seek opportunities to play in several ways, and continuously striving to improve my playing and technique as I take on other challenges in the vast world of musicality through my bass playing.
