In this video, we welcome our latest jazz bass tutor, the great Russell Hall and discuss all things jazz bass.

Meet Russell Hall:
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Russell Hall migrated to the United States in 2007 where his double bass studies progressed quickly through the rigorous programs of The Dillard Center for the Arts and The Juilliard School. Russell has a deep understanding of the jazz tradition, having studied with many of the double bass world's most renowned artists including Ron Carter, Christian McBride, and Ben Wolfe. Still, he is also an artist looking forward with his own distinct and virtuosic approach to the double bass.

As a first-call bassist in New York City, Russell has performed with some of the biggest names in music including Joey Alexander, Wayne Shorter, Wynton Marsalis, Branford Marsalis, Jon Batiste, Roy Hargrove, Kathleen Battle, Christian McBride, Emmet Cohen, Russell Malone, George Coleman and many more. Also well known for his work with the Emmet Cohen Trio alongside drummer Kyle Poole, Russell also leads his own bands, including Bessie and the Rainbowkids to much critical acclaim.

Russell Hall joined the Discover Double Bass faculty as a jazz bass specialist with his course, Bessie’s Bass Busters which is out now: https://courses.discoverdoublebass.co...
