Stanley Clarke N•4EVER

Four-time Grammy-winning bassist Stanley Clarke is one of the most celebrated acoustic and electric bass players in the world. What’s more, he is equally gifted as a recording artist, performer, conductor, arranger, producer and film score composer. A true pioneer in jazz and jazz fusion, Clarke is particularly known for his ferocious bass dexterity and consummate musicality. In 2022, Clarke was selected by the National Endowment for the Arts as one of its four new Jazz Master honorees. Clarke was honored with Bass Player Magazine’s Lifetime Achievement Award and is a member of Guitar Player Magazine’s “Gallery of Greats.”

“Stanley Clarke’s prolific output can soothe you with a gentle bow of the bass … or launch you into an interplanetary future. His playing holds a reckless abandon, clarity and facility rarely heard on the low end.” — The New York Times
