What your child will learn

Every band needs a bass player. Bass connects the rhythm and the harmony, and kids who learn it become the musicians everyone wants to play with.

Private lessons cover the groove, the notes and the songs your child loves, with plenty of chances to play alongside other students.

  • Groove, timing and locking in with drums
  • Notes on the neck and reading bass tabs
  • Scales and walking bass lines
  • Songs they choose, from rock to funk
  • Playing with a live band
