Meet and witness the extraordinary electric bassist, Stu Hamm, at this FREE Clinic made possible by Washburn Guitars. Stu is renowned for his two handed popping/tapping/slapping techniques that led him to perform and record with legendary guitarists including Steve Vai, Frank Gambale and Joe Satriani.
Check out Stu’s amazing style on this video: of his “Moonlight Sonata” . You can see why he has been voted the “Best Rock Bassist” and “Best Jazz Bassist” multiple times by industry magazine polls.
On Feb. 27th, Stu will present a solo performance, tell of his techniques and his experiences as a recording artist and performer, and invite questions in an informal setting. The clinic will be of interest to any musician, bassist or guitar player fascinated with the tapping/slapping sound and technique. Stu will be available after the performance to greet and sign CD’s.
While registration is not required, reservations are strongly recommended, as space is limited. THE FIRST 25 people to call 978-534-8989 or email info@citymusiconline.com , will receive priority seating and VIP preference during Stu’s autograph session.
