      Get to know Matt Allman

      My music journey started in the summer of 2023. I began taking lessons with a friend who happened to be a teacher at music and arts. After playing guitar for three months and struggling to learn a single song all the way through, I switched to electric bass. I had to stop lessons at that point due to financial reasons. However, my progress on bass quickly outpaced whatever I was trying to learn on guitar. I learned and perfected my first song within two weeks! I continue to advance my bass skills day by day.

      Cliff Burton was the first bass player that made my eyes widen with excitement at the possibility of what the instrument was capable of. Although, my playing style is shaped by other artists such as Geezer Butler, Steve Harris, Stanley Clark, and Jaco Pastorious.

      I play bass and while I don’t have much theoretical knowledge I do have some technical skills. They mostly came from learning songs that were written by my inspirations, to writing my own songs and messing around with different scales and chords. I also enjoy learning about the electronics in the gear such as amplifiers, effect pedals, and the pickups in the instruments.
