I've been a working professional bassist, on both upright bass and bass guitar. Since 1970 working in numerous wedding, pop, jazz, big bands and orchestras in several states and have been hired to record for several musicians in the studio during my career. I have performed with international stars such as Ray Charles, Andrea Bocelli, Jimmy Heath, Byron Stripling, Anne Murray and others,at major casinos such as The Taj Mahal in Atlantic City New Jersey, Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos in Connecticut to name a few. I currently can be seen performing with The GS Jazz Trio throughout the DFW area, performing several nights during the week and weekends at local restaurants, wine bars and private parties and events. My greatest pleasure, next to performing, is watching the excitement, fun and joy my students experience playing their instrument with confidence and a sense of accomplishment and seeing the smiles beam on their faces after they finish playing a piece of music they always wanted to before but could achieve it. That is such a wonderful and beautiful thing to be a part of. I always look forward to meeting new students and leading them on their own personal journey and memories. I believe that with the right teacher (my part) patience and determination (your part) together we can make something happen for YOU too !!!
