Fred

Guest contributor Fred Pucci was drawn to the bass at the age of 16 and has been playing ever since.

In his words:

“While some people gravitate towards the lyrics of a song, and others marvel at a good melody or solo, I hear the bass. I feel the bass. I marvel at a good tight groove – one that you feel in your bones, one that makes you want to move!”

Recently retired, he is now working as a freelance writer and gigging on the weekends. He has a degree in Marketing and an MBA which he used to refine his writing and marketing skills at Nabisco (… and yes, he was the “Cookie-man” before becoming the “Bass-man”!)

That combination of love of bass and writing makes him an excellent fit on our team.

As he says: “I try to be a voice for all the regular, everyday bass players out there who love music, and are just trying to be a little bit better today than they were yesterday.”

Fred is our trusted editor on the blog and of various upcoming publications as well as the head coach of our cohort programs.
