Frankie's Jazz Club | Vancouver, BC

Brad Pearson has performing professionally on the Vancouver music scene since 2016 when he graduated with a bachelors of applied music from Vancouver Community College; studying classical double bass with Laurence Mollerup, and electric bass with Cameron Hood. He has performed with local legends Hugh Fraser, Campbell Ryga, Brad Turner, and Buff Allen. This bassist is best known for his associations with saxophone great John Gross, as well as the rapidly ascending piano virtuoso Jimi James Fraser. Brad has developed his sound from a wide range of influences; both his improvisations and compositions are informed by jazz titans such as McCoy Tyner, Dexter Gordon, John Coltrane, Bill Evans as well as contemporary bassists such as Renaud Garcia-Fons, Janek Gwizdala, Mathew Garrison, and Damien Erskine. The bassists sound and approach was also largely shaped by his pre-academic years playing blues music with Delta Blue, Metal with GFAP, and progressive rock with Grizzly Bones. When not performing, Brad runs Pearson Instruments, a busy Vancouver guitar repair shop. He also designs and builds his own electric basses which he performs on exclusively when not playing acoustic bass.
For this Frankies After Dark performance, Brad will be joined by guitarist Joel Faulkner, and drummer Jamison Ko, playing electric renditions of classic jazz standards, fusion, and original compositions.
Frankie's After Dark takes place every Friday and Saturday at Frankie's Jazz Club in downtown Vancouver and is curated by Tim Reinert of Infidels Jazz. Shows start at 11:00PM and tickets are $10.
