Lars

What do artists like Uli Jon Roth, Vinnie Moore, Simon Phillips, Clyde Stubblefield, Marty Friedman, Bobby Byrd, Randy Hansen, Pee Wee Ellis, Gus G. (Ozzy Osbourne), Roachford, Mark Boals (Yngwie Malmsteen), Gwen McCrae, Marva Whitney, Martha High, Lyn Collins, Mousse T., UFO, Sydney Youngblood and many more have in common? Lars Lehmann on the bass guitar!

Lars is one of the most versatile freelance bassplayers in Europe. You will find the editor in chief of german bass magazine BASS PROFESSOR either gigging at international rock or pop venues or at jazz festivals – then again you will spot him playing the double bass in the orchestra pit at some musical show. A quick glimpse at his touring shedule from the past few years speaks volumes.

Lars is an international endorser of MUSIC MAN basses and MARKBASS equipment and has written one of the best teaching method books on slapping bass: „Slap Attack“ (so far only available in german, an english translation will be available by some time in 2010).

Lars also works as a bassteacher at a course of studies called „Popular Music“ at the „Hochschule fuer Musik und Theater“ in Hannover, Germany, as well as the „Academy Of Contemporary Music (ACM)“ in London, England.
