Andrew Goins has been hard at work since the pandemic hit.  He recently launched the Texas Double Bass Academy, which is dedicated to the online education of the pre-college double bass student, and he has been putting together a compelling offering with many of Texas’ most renowned bass teachers.

This new organization will host the Texas Double Bass Academy Online Camp this June 1-4.  This camp is made for students entering grades 9-12, and it is not limited to Texas residents.

The clinician lineup is incredible:

• George Amorim
• Andrew Goins
• Nick Scales
• Dennis Whittaker

Additional topic presenters include:

• Travis Baird
• Grace Lewis
• Mitch Moehring
• Jack Unzicker
