Keith Malinowski

Guitar/Bass/Ukulele – All Ages/All Levels/All Styles

At the age of 12, Keith’s father purchased his first Fender electric bass so he could perform with his junior high band mates. Self taught, he worked his way up playing with many local rock and original bands. At age 26, Keith switched paths and began studying jazz and bought his first standup bass. He soon began playing at jazz festivals and local venues, such as Baker’s Keyboard Lounge and Bert’s Marketplace with the likes of Marcus Belgrave, Larry Smith, James Carter, Gerald Cleaver and many more. Today Keith is one of the more sought after bassists in the Detroit area. Some of Keith’s influences include Jaco Pastorius, Ray Brown, Dave Holland, Charlie Haden, John Coltrane, and Charlie Parker.
