Robinson Morse

A native of Vermont, Morse spent some years in New York studying bass with John Patitucci and honing his composition chops at City College. Since then he's been performing and recording with a ton of innovative folks and genre benders like Taylor Haskins, Michael Chorney, the Dupont Brothers and many more. After establishing himself as a flexible and supportive sideman with artists from Anais Mitchell of Hadestown fame and Ray Vega to Arturo, Adam and Zack O'Farrill, Morse recently released his first recording as a leader with the Sound of Mind Medium Big Band. When not traveling or performing Rob works as a luthier in a small cello and bass shop in the hills of Vermont.
