Grammy Award winner, Bobby Flores is a multi instrumentalist, vocalist, arranger, producer, composer, first call session musician, and band leader. It is the goal of this camp to educate and enrich the personal growth for the advanced music student from the novice to the performing band member, while preserving the Western Swing Music Style.


When it comes to Upright Bass, Jake Hooker is indeed another master musician! We welcome Jake back to our camp as our Bass instructor. Jake began playing the bass at the age of seven and practiced diligently until he mastered the honky-tonk sound. Jake formed his own band at the age of 14 and began performing. By the age of 18, Jake was playing bass and singing full time. He studied music and theory at South Plains College in Levelland, Texas . Jake moved to the Fort Worth area in 1998 where he quickly became the local favorite. Jake signed with Southland Records that same year and began recording. Jake's popularity continues to grow. Not only is he a tremendously talented and popular vocalist, but he’s also earned the reputation as the new Country and Western Swing icon on Upright Bass, both in studios and live on stage . His love and passion for traditional country music never ceases. Jake is strongly influenced by the sounds of Ray Price, Johnny Bush, Farron Young, Curtis Potter, Leon Rausch and Darrell McCall. He spends much of his spare time studying these artists. www.jakehookermusic.com
