It's my pleasure to welcome Adam Nitti to TalkBass, and to officially open our newest "Ask a Pro" forum. I'd like to thank Adam for taking the time to make himself available to us! Adam has a great internet presence, and even does streaming lessons via skype. For more info, check his website.

Here's a short bio that I stole from his website, www.adamnitti.com

"
Adam Nitti is a bassist, producer, composer, and music educator based out of Nashville, TN. He has worked with an extremely diverse collection of artists, including:

Steven Curtis Chapman
the Dave Weckl Band
Susan Tedeschi

Casting Crowns
Victor Wooten
Justice League

Josh Bates
Avalon
Angie Aparo
Shane Theriot
Scott Henderson
Peter Erskine
Chris Tomlin
Jimmy Herring
Mike Stern
Kirk Covington
Wayne Krantz
Joe Beck
Deborah Brown
…and many others…

His musical experiences have allowed him to become active in the Nashville recording scene, and he has more recently become more involved in producing independent artists on a regular basis. In addition to being a performer, composer, and producer, Adam is also Chief Learning Officer for MusicDojo.com, an interactive online music school. He is also a bass clinician for Aguilar, Essential Sound Products, and D’Addario, and is a staff instructor for both Victor Wooten’s bass & nature camps and Gerald Veasley’s Bass Boot Camps. Adam is also a columnist for Bass Player magazine and Bass Musician Magazine, is an adjunct faculty member of Lagrange College’s school of music, and has done dozens of clinic and performance appearances at such events as Euro Bass Day, Bass Player Live, Bass Day U.K., Bassquake, and many others. He has recently released his 4th solo record, entitled, 'Liminal.'

Very cool Adam, I caught your show with Tom Bowlus at Summer Namm w/Keith Carlock and your playing at the All Star Guitar Night. Great Stuff. Liminal is getting worn out in my Ipod. Welcome to the TB Community.
