About Dean
I’m a 40-year-old professional bassist with a lifelong passion for music. I’ve been playing since I was 13, inspired by my father — also a bass player — who first put the instrument in my hands. Since then, I’ve spent over 27 years performing across Australia in both original and cover bands, touring and recording in a wide range of styles. Bass has always been more than just an instrument for me — it’s been a way to connect, express, and grow. Now, I’m passionate about passing that on. I teach because I love helping others find their groove, build confidence, and discover what they’re capable of musically. Whether you’re picking up the bass for the first time or want to take your playing to the next level, I’m here to support and guide you every step of the way.

My lessons are designed to suit each student’s unique goals, skill level, and musical interests. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced player looking to refine your technique, I’ll help you develop strong fundamentals, great timing, and real musical feel.
I teach both electric bass and double bass, and you can choose to learn by ear, theory, or a blend of both. Styles covered include rock, funk, jazz, blues, pop, soul, and more.
We’ll cover:
• Technique (fingerstyle, picking, slap, arco for upright)
• Groove and rhythm development
• Playing with a band
• Reading notation or TAB
• Improvisation and creative expression
Lessons are relaxed but focused — I want you to enjoy playing while progressing at your pace. Whether you’re preparing for a school performance, wanting to jam with others, or chasing a professional path, I can help you get there.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
I had the privilege of learning double bass from Dean, and his teaching had a lasting impact on both my playing and my overall approach to music. Dean is not only a highly skilled and experienced bassist, but also a passionate, patient, and supportive teacher. He has a real gift for breaking down complex techniques and making them feel achievable.
What stood out most was his ability to tailor lessons to my style and interests, while still building strong technical foundations. His enthusiasm for the instrument is contagious, and his encouragement gave me the confidence to keep pushing myself.
I’d highly recommend Dean to anyone looking to develop their bass playing with a knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and inspiring teacher.View more recommendations
