The Carla Drew Project - Sunday Services at St Lawrence of Brindisi

May 30, 2010 from 11am to 12:30pm

I'll be back at St Lawrence of Brindisi‎ for their Sunday 11:00 a.m. services. I'll be playing my GK 110 Sidekick amp and my 3/4 Upright bass. Come check out an amazing band, and a very tight choir. Even if you are not a follower of the faith, its good live free music on a Sunday mid-morning.

playing my "shadow in the mansion (Project Triskelion)" on a custom built harpsichord. It had an amazing sound, and pleasure to play on.

Profile Information

Marital Status: Divorced

Where are you located?: West Hollywood, CA

What is your affiliation to the Jazz World?: Visual Artist, Composer, Graphic Designer, Author, Collector, Fan

Tell us a little about your background...: I’m a native to the city of Los Angeles. I’ve been playing music for over half of my life, starting the journey at a tender age of ten. I am classically trained first, until man-years later, the jazz bug bit me, and I’ve been doing it ever since, but I also play other styles from Rock to Bach and everything in between.

Classically & Jazz trained on the acoustic bass for 20+ years. When I was younger, I had the pleasure of shortly studying under Bill “William” Rene in West L.A. I was very lucky to be the youngest student admitted for the weekend workshops at the D*** Grove school of music, where while concurrently going to Fairfax High School (Class of 1988) as a music major, I spent my senior year at Grove. I studied under Dean Taba for two semesters. Upon my graduation of Fairfax High School, I was awarded the Herb Alpert Music Scholarship.

I have had the pleasure to play in the Valley College 18 piece big band for a handful of semesters; conducted by Don Nelligan. I also was blessed, by being one of the basses for the Valley College orchestra conducted by T.A. Lynn. I then headed south to cooler weather, and was in the Santa Monica City College’s orchestra, conducted by L. Beasley, where I held the chair 1st bass, 2nd string. Every summer I would play at the African Market place on Rodeo Avenue in Los Angeles. I had a short stint over at Cal-State Los Angeles, where I was a bassist for Dr. Buck, whom conducted the orchestra. I also was in the wind ensemble, being the only string bass, conducted by Prof. Williams. The string bass brought an interesting sound and texture to a sea of woodwinds & brass. This experience paid off years later, as I have done the same thing with the Al Malaikah Shrine Los Angeles Million Dollar Band.

My strong point is I’m a reader. I also have a very good ear and tend to play in the pocket. Of the experiences, gigging, and all the people I’ve played with over the years, jammed with, or did session work with I have to laugh a little, as the road still is long, and there are so many more experiences to be had.

I am available for session work, shows and jam sessions. My main project that I’ve been involved with since 2003 is a seasonal show, mainly in the fall, with some special events for the spring. I’m the bassist for The Penny Dreadful, which is the musical aspect of The Doubtful Guests.
