"Bass Day is the first of its kind for the city of Pasadena," says Jerry Watts, head of LA Music Academy's Bass Department. "Bassquake's Pete DeCuir is a great friend of mine and we partnered together to create the first Bass Day event in 2006. I was happy to encourage the Academy to host this year's event, not only for our community but for all interested musicians throughout Southern California." Watts says the event is a fun and entertaining learning experience capped by awe-inspiring, genre-crossing performances from which all levels of musicians can learn.
Sponsors include Yamaha, DR Strings, Genz-Benz, La Bella, AccuGroove, Aguilar Amplification, Bass Xchange, Amp Shop, Carvin, EBS, Kot Basses and Thunderfunk.
