Hi, my name is Joe.
I’m a bassist living in Baltimore, MD. I teach music lessons, perform in bands, and record bass in the studio.
I love playing and listening to all kinds of music which is why the bass is the perfect instrument for me!
As a teenager I took lessons on bass guitar, joined middle and high school jazz band, played in rock bands with friends, and started gigging on weekends with my father who is also a musician. Playing with real working musicians at a young age taught me many valuable lessons that I still carry with me today.
I began teaching private lessons in 2004 while attending college. I earned a B.A. in Music Composition in 2008 and a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in American Contemporary Music Composition in 2010 from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
Lessons
I teach lessons from my home studio, Martone Music Studio.
