My Experience as a Teacher

I have been a professional musician and Educator since graduation from my degree in 2011 from the institute of contemporary music, since that time I have worked with some major label artist including Ella Eyre, John Newman, Clean Bandit, Foxes, OH Wonder, Prep, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Becky Hill, Rationale, JC Stewart etc.

I have played some of the largest and most prestigious venues in the UK, Europe and the US including The Royal Albert Hall, Brixton Academy, Shephards Bush Empire, London KoKo, Manchester Arena, The SSe Hydro, Wembley Arena, Liverpool arena, Red Rocks amphitheatre, Roseland Theatre, Rapids Theatre, Hammersmith Eventim Apollo, Royal Festival Hall, London Palladium etc. David has also Played at some of the following festivals across Europe, Glastonbury festival, Isle of Wight Festival, Sziget Festival, Balaton Sound, Untold Festival, TRNSMT Festival, Parklife Festival, T in the Park, Wireless Festival, Pukkelpop Festival, V Festival, Latitude festival, Camp Bestival, Henley Festival etc.

I have always been a dedicated educator and mentor and have managed to maintain a healthy private teaching practice along with live and studio work, having several early longtime students go on to work professionally within the music industry on high profile gigs themselves. David prides himself on his ability to pass on the things has has learned throughout his extensive career as well as from his time at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance and Studying Privately with Some of the greats of the instrument (Paul Westwood, Robin Mullarkey, Rufus Philpot, Joe Hubbard).

More About My Lessons

My lessons are structured logically, and informed by my years of teaching and performing. Each will aim to keep students busy and progressing steadily, whilst also engaging with their own musical interests.

Though it is important to keep sessions productive, enjoyment is absolutely essential to achieving the best results. Learning any musical instrument should be an exciting process, so I always like to keep lessons relaxed and encouraging for learners!

Each lesson is delivered and planned with the individual student in mind. No two bassists are the same, and so I strongly believe that each lesson's content should reflect age, interests and learning rates of every learner.
