Country - Jazz - Folk - Classical
You may be interested in learning the ins and outs of double bass in any number of genres, including country, blues, jazz, folk etc. Or you may be drawn more to the classical idiom. Having extensive experience as both a performer and a recording artist, I'll happily give you tips and tricks to help you take your playing to the next level.
