About Christopher
Hi, my name is Christopher Quinn. I'm a bass player and freelance musician and for the past few years I've been working with several projects all over the UK. I graduated from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in jazz with honours of the first class in 2024. I was also a recipient of the Alan McAuley jazz award for career development upon finishing my studies. Since then, I've become one of the most in-demand musicians in Glasgow, where I'm based.
I've worked as a sideman - recording and performing - in several projects of varying styles, including: Jazz, Rock, Punk, Indie, Metal, Funk, Bluegrass, Folk, Hip-Hop, Pop, Soul, Jungle, DnB and more.
I remember when I was starting out, I was largely self-taught until my late teens because I couldn't find a bass teacher! At least one that wasn't a guitarist with some basic knowledge of the bass. I want to teach because I want to help enthusiastic bass players reach their potential by providing the opportunity that I didn't have.

I believe the best way to learn music is to enjoy your practice. I don't think it should be a chore to practise, more like a form of meditation. When I began to learn bass, I got better just by playing along to my favourite music. Music is a language, and you can't learn a language from a textbook - you learn by speaking, listening and immersing yourself in the culture.
I tailor lessons around the student and their needs. If you are an intermediate musician inspired by a particular genre, style or artist, then I'll give you meaningful practice techniques that will help you build the dexterity in order to achieve the sound you like. If you're a total beginner or you're not sure what you like, that's cool too! I can help you find what inspires you and we can work from there.
I teach out of my lovely flat in the Southside of Glasgow, in my rehearsal/studio space 15 minutes walk from Glasgow Central, or alternatively I can do Zoom lessons. I teach in 30/60 minute blocks.
Recommendations

Christopher is a hugely talented musician with a real skill at teaching and helping people from complete beginners to experienced players looking to expand their abilities. Highly recommended.
Chris is maybe my favorite bass player to play with in Glasgow! Forever inspiring and someone that is versatile in jazz, and also a solid groove player. He has some of the fattest pocket known to mankind!
I would have Chris teach my own kids (if I had any) and strongly recommend him as his passion and love for music really come across, and I'm sure he will have lots of knowledge to pass on as probably one of Glasgow's most in-demand players (•‿•)View more recommendations

I'm willing to negotiate my rates for those that need it, I don't believe there should be a financial barrier to music.
