Victor Wooten, a five-time Grammy Award winner and one of the most influential bassists of all time, began playing music at the age of two and was touring with his brothers by age six, opening shows for Curtis Mayfield. Rising to global recognition as a founding member of Bla Fleck and the Flecktones in 1990, Wooten has since become a celebrated artist, teacher, author, and the only bassist to win Bass Player Magazines Bassist of the Year award three times. His playing style is defined by unmatched versatility, warmth, and articulationqualities that are captured perfectly in his signature strings.
