About Zander Zon

Zander Zon (a stage name) is a solo bassist and instrumentalist based in London, England. His home-made YouTube videos, which feature original compositions and solo arrangements of popular songs, have over three million total views. Zander is known for using altered tunings and thin gauge strings, which give him access to a massive tuning range. He uses a variety of techniques to create intricate bass arrangements, including harmonics, two-hand tapping, flamenco-style strumming, and chordal fingerstyle. Though he is a highly technical bassist, Zander's music, described as cinematic and unique, is always at the forefront.

In April 2013, Zander released his acclaimed second album, Saturn Return. It features six new solo bass compositions, three orchestrations, and an arrangement of Pachelbel's Baroque classic, "Canon in D." This release follows his renowned debut album, Sonorous (2010), which features 10 original compositions, all solo bass.

Following the release of Sonorous, Bassline Publishing released the Zander Zon - Sonorous Bass Transcriptions book in 2011, which contains tabs and sheet music for all of his compositions on Sonorous, as well as performance notes, interviews, and information on bass setup. 2011 also saw the release of the bass compilation holiday album, "Holiday Rumblings" by Zon Guitars. This album includes two pieces by Zander, as well as pieces by Michael Manring and various Zon Guitars artists.
