I'm Mark Keane
I am a bass player, vocalist and music educator based in Munich, Germany. I've studied at "The Collective" School of Music in New York City and Munich's "New Jazz School". I perform regularly in the Munich metropolitan area with acts such as Malon Way, The Sundries and Hüftgold and serve as house bassist for The Munich Sessions Recording Studio. I have developed skills in many various contemporary and traditional styles and genres of music on electric and upright bass, having studied under Lincoln Goines, John Davis, Franz "Litschie" Hrdlicka and Francesco "Trincia" Olivieri. My musical path has allowed me the good fortune to support a wide range of artists such as Deer Park Avenue, Ryan Inglis, Caroline Kelley, Chris Stoeger, Max Neissendorfer, John Brunton, Robert Gardner, Valéria Tapia, Fabrício Cavalcante, The Bottles and the Paul Daly Band.

Teaching
Whether in the one-to-one, small group or classroom setting, I have the appropriate training, qualifications and teaching experience to help you reach and surpass your musical goals, whatever your level of bass playing. I also apply my paedagogical skills, many years of playing guitar in a professional setting and lessons from master jazz guitarist, Alex Jung to teaching guitar to beginner and intermediate guitarists. My extensive live performance experience lends my teaching a fun, real-world emphasis |
Studio
Allow my professional quality instruments and recording equipment to give your recordings the sound and feeling they deserve. My experience in-studio means you get your bass down quickly and efficiently. Collaborators most welcome: Let me bring my sound, technique and musicality to your project. Send me your tracks and ideas and work via correspondence |
Live Events
Through my various projects, I am able to provide tailor-made entertainment for all occasions and in many cases sound equipment. Be it soulful solo vocal & guitar, folk duo, jazz combo, rock/pop party band to dance or big band, I am confident I can find an enjoyable and impressive musical highlight for your event |
