Jack O Roonie
IMG_2587.jpg

Innovative and award winning professional with a 40 year long expertise in live performance, studio recording and musical composing. Accomplished double bass and electric bass player. Devoted to Americana roots music. Master in accompanying internationally renowned artists. Eager and capable teacher.

Jack set out to hone his craft by broadening his horizons, after an eye-opening and grueling stint at the Music academy Schools,

 Master classes, privates lessons with internationals bass players, Jack began to embrace music genres as  Jazz, classical music, movie scores, Charles Mingus variations… the only common thread is a complete dedication to the Art of the DoubleBass

That is not to say that Jack has forgotten how to rock out, put him on the same stage or in the same studio as touring rock & roll royalty and you are guaranteed a virtuoso performance of relentless ferocity.

The man can slap like a demon ,the only difference is, he will hit the right notes.

It says a lot about a person when they are as loyal in friendship as they are demanding in their craft. I consider myself privileged to count Jack O Roonie as a dear friend.
