About this user

JD Pinckney was exposed to music constantly throughout his life. His father is a cellist and his mother is a harpist with the prestigious Saint Louis Symphony. JD began his musical career on the cello at the tender age of seven and switched to bass when he was 14. He played in the University City High School Orchestra and also the Jazz Band. He has studied at music at Washington University in St. Louis, and privately with Henry Loew, the principal bassist with the Saint Louis Symphony. He attended the Musicians Institute of Technology in Hollywood, CA where he studied with Gary Willis, Steve Bailey, Jeff Berlin, Alexis Sklarevski, Tim Bogert and many other phenominal bassists. JD also plays a mean blues harmonica.

JD spent much of the 80's and 90's gigging and touring with various rock, R&B and jazz acts. He has toured with or shared the bill with the likes of War, Morris Day and the Time, Confunkshun, Ollie Ali Wilson of the Temptations, Johnny Graham of Earth Wind and Fire, Chaka Kahn, Krystol, The Jets, Pleasure Mask, Bibianna, Casual Sax, and many other acts.

JD works with THE BASH!!, an awesome group of musicians who perform regularly at local casinos, clubs and private parties. He has also worked with Katherine Prouse, an extraordinarily talented jazz singer, and "Playlist", a cover/dance band, and "Yardsale", a 7 piece '70s blues/disco band. JD has recently worked with Christian singer/songwriter, Mariah Langford . JD has also worked with a very talented young singer/songwriter named Linsea and The Frankie Russel Band, featuring the classic style rock n roll songs of Frankie Russell. JD has performed at various churches including Elsinore First Assembly, South Hills Church, Corona International Christian Fellowship, New Beginnings Community Church among others.

JD draws his influences from many sources, from R&B to rock to jazz and everywhere in-between, and that shows in his ability to blend in to virtually any musical situation. His favorite bass players are: Marcus Miller, Anthony Jackson, Alfonso Johnson, Jaco Pastorious, Stanley Clarke, Abraham Laborial, Larry Graham, Pino Paladino, Verdine White, Louis Johnson, Rocco Prestia, James Jamerson and many others;
