Lervis
Lervis is a professional Pop/R&B session bassist and educator based in Singapore with 10 years of experience under his belt. He grew up playing the guitar and drums in his early years but made the switch over to the bass guitar at the age of 18 and has never looked back.
At 21, he left his day job to focus solely on music and got accepted into Lasalle College of the Arts majoring in bass. By the end of his first year, he was already holding residency gigs playing at local restaurants and night clubs. He was also teaching music privately during this time and giving music theory tuition to his peers.
His eclectic approach to music and dedication to his craft has given him the opportunity to perform with different types of acts ranging from Metal to Hip-hop. In 2019, he was called to perform in front of an 8,000-strong crowd for a music festival in Taiwan and shortly after at KL, Malaysia.
Lervis has taught more than 100s of students ranging from kids to adults and he is also currently completing his BA in Interdisciplinary Music Studies from Berklee.
