Ed Bennett has long been considered one of the West Coast's premiere string bass players. Since his arrival in 1990, Ed has become an acoustical force on the Portland jazz scene.
He is one of those powerhouse players whose virtuosity inspires the other participants on the bandstand to give it all they've got”. GEORGE FENDEL / JAZZSCENE.
The fresh sounds of Bennett’s original compositions are be-bop influenced, but unique with twists in their harmonic progressions and unusual forms.
