Often considered the most versatile upright bass player of his generation, bassist Cole Davis has created a new sound in the rich history of the upright bass. As the upright bass player in the indie rock band Lambchop, his bass lines have been described by NPR as "so thick [they] sound exactly the way your heart feels after surviving some surefire catastrophe." He is also a prolific educator with several books to his name, most notably the book The New Simandl, which recently passed 1,000 copies sold worldwide. He holds two degrees from the Juilliard School, where he was the youngest person in the school's history to be accepted into the Artist Diploma and Master of Music programs concurrently. He is currently based in Manhattan, New York.
