Legendary Bassist, Educator

At one time tagged as the hardest working bass player in America, Chuck Rainey’s bass playing on successful television shows, motion pictures and recordings illustrate his well-known and legendary style, feel and concept for the instrument and it’s role in organized music. His unique bass lines accent numerous commercials and are an integral part of today’s music across many music viewing and listening fronts.

Chuck’s music activities in education reach far out into the world’s organized music communities. As music education is a vital part of his playing career and experience, his textbooks and educational video’s are tools used by many educators in the curriculums of their local institutions. Self reliant students are also attracted to his learning tools.

After appearing as a Surprise Guest at the first Bass/Nature Camp in 2000, Chuck has been a staple of our faculty. We’re honored to have a living legend of the Bass Guitar teaching with us.
