It’s difficult to imagine a more multifarious, well-versed and experienced contemporary bass player than Martin Engelien. He’s been around for more than 50 years, having covered practically all the bass bases: from touring all over the world, teaching, developing instruments for big-name bass manufacturers, to performing on TV and demoing the finest Bass gear. Besides platinum and gold records, Martin won countless prizes such as “Golden Europe”, “Band of the Year”, “Song of the Year” et cetera. He produced several successful albums for other musicians, including the most successful German Jazz Musician, Albert Mangelsdorff. Over the years, Martin has participated in over 150 CD productions, with a total of over 10million CDs sold. Since 1996 Martin Engelien runs the monthly club tour event “Go Music”.
