Nina Mars

Bass Player & Jazz Lover

About Me

Bass and Melodica player that enjoys all improv music. First ventured into Jazz in High School, thanks to my brother. Played classical piano since age 9. Picked up bass late in life - age 28. Met Perry Robinson who told me “Only play what you don't know!” Wow!

My Jazz Story

My brother introduced me to jazz in high school - bands like Weather Report, Pat Methany, etc. We had a trio - he played drums, I played piano, a friend played sax. We only played in the living room, but had a blast! Years later I met Perry Robinson when living in Hoboken, NJ. Perry opened the world of improv to me. What a gift!
