On top of being a great dude, Marshal is an outstanding bassist and educator, who displays a vast amout of knowledge across many different musical genres. Whether you are just starting out, looking to get deep into Scott Lafaro jazz solo (or anything in between), look no further, Marshal is your guy!

Marshal is a wonderfully talented young man. He is a master at what he does, and shares it well.

Having worked with Marshal for many years I can highly recommend him as a bassist, composer, and educator.

Marshal's knowledge, experience and deep commitment to the upright bass is what sets him apart as an educator.

I'm impressed by his releases in jazz / folk / country and other genres as well as his overall versatility as a player. Be sure to check out his book on Scott Lafaro style techniques!

Marshal has truly opened the bass guitar for me! Whether we are working on songs, technique, song writing or music theory he notices what I am missing and has beastly recommendations that make a difference. Its also nice to have a teacher who can satisfy my interest in blues, folk and jazz! He's got a masters in jazz bass performance from Mcgill, so yeah he knows what he's doing! I would easily recommend Marshal to any intermediate player who wants the keys to unlocking their instrument.

Marshall is a passionate, knowledgable and fun music teacher. He's able to take some of the more boring subjects and explain them in a clear and entertaining way. Highly recommend!

He is truly a wonderful musician and teacher. He mastered very sophiscate harmony and theory. He is a multiple instrumentalist. He is soft spoken and patient teacher. He has an interesting way of looking at music and works hard for the students. I highly recomend him.

Marshall is an accomplished Musician with expertise in jazz, pop, country, and other contemporary styles. Marshall is an expert of technique on the upright bass. In all of my experiences playing with Marshall, his eminent musicianship has elevated the level of the ensemble. He's also a 'super chill dude' trust me.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Marshal for 6 years now. He is very kind, patient, has a great sense of humour, and explains concepts very well. Marshal would make an excellent teacher.

Marshall Herridge is an extremely talented and promising bass player who I’ve had the privilege to play with. He is an incredible human being: one who can make you laugh but is also serious, responsible and willing to teach the broad knowledge he capitalized during his career.

In one word: wow. Marshal is probably the best bass teacher I'vee ever had! He analyzed my shortcomings and gave me really good exercises to overcome them! Thanks again Marshal!

Marshal is always a joy and an inspiration to work with, no matter the genre style or skill level he’s always been able to breakdown concepts in a palatable way with practical examples along the way

He has a passion for helping people express themselves through their music and discover a life long love for musicianship
