Born 1993 in Duisburg and raised in a small village called ‘Sevelen’ in the lower Rhine area next to the German/Dutch border, Calvin Lennig took up his first electric bass and guitar lessons at the age of 14. During the next years he played bass in mostly Rock and Pop bands. At the age of 16 Lennig started taking lessons with Marcel Grothues who introduced him into the world of jazz music.
In the context of a preparatory course for his music studies in Cologne, Calvin Lennig started to play double bass at 18 and took lessons with Andre Nendza.
