Eliot Seppa, Bass

For Eliot Seppa it’s all about that bass! The Washington, DC-based bandleader, arranger, and composer is a master of both the upright and electric bass. His jazz fusion sound is heavily influenced by R&B, hip-hop, gospel, Latin, and African music. Seppa has performed as a sideman for many of the top jazz and R&B acts, including The Impressions, Raul Midón, Benito Gonzalez, Sarah McKenzie, Warren Wolf, and Sharon Clark. He has been described as having the assurance often reserved for much older players, even while retaining the verve of a youthful comer.
