Upright Bass with Carson R.

Recent USC Music Grad available for bass lessons and more. Having been a student most of my life, I've experienced what makes a teacher and lesson plan great, or stale. Ready to extend my knowledge to students who are thrilled by music and the bass, and ready for the next step in their creative life. Over the years I have studied with many great bass instructors such as: *Alphonso Johnson- Weather Report, Bob Weir(Grateful Dead) and Santana *Ray Riendeau - Rob Halford(Judas Priest), James Labrie(Dream Theatre), and Solo Slap Bass Master! *Barry Olson - Retired Principal Bassist of the Phoenix Symphony In addition, I also studied Classical Composition, Counterpoint, Theory, and Arranging extensively with: *Neal Desby- Composer, Film+Video GameScore Arranger (Guardians of the Galaxy, Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and 3), and also teaches Flea, Frank Ocean, Weezer, Maroon 5, and Fall Out Boy. *Veronika Krausas - Composer, teacher at USC, Lecturer for the LA Philharmonic
