Ashdown support WaterBear...

We are proud to support the NEW WaterBear College of Music in Brighton. WaterBear is a new Brighton-based college for musicians and creatives, now accepting applications for courses starting September 2018.  Working in partnership with the University of Chichester, WaterBear offers BA (Hons) and Master of Arts courses for today’s musicians and music industry professionals, including a brand-new BA (Hons) in Commercial Music; an MA in Music Industry Innovation and Enterprise for degree graduates; and an MA in Music Industry Innovation and Enterprise for mature students.

WaterBear is run by its founders: Bruce John Dickinson (Little Angels), Adam Bushell (Freak Power) and Mark Clayden (Pitchshifter) – a formidable management team of highly-experienced professionals, each of whom has significant experience in the music industry as established touring musicians and recording artists. What’s more, the team members also share a deep-set passion for music education, each with over 20 years’ experience at the forefront of the UK’s world-leading private music education sector, having set up and run several highly successful music colleges.

We were sent some pics from the facility in Brighton showing of their new beautiful bass set up #spotthevu  

Also here’s a quote from Aidan Hampson, a bass tutor at WaterBear - 

"My students and I have loved using the Ashdown amps at WaterBear. They are reliable, have a huge range of tones and look great. They’re also incredibly consistent whether turned up loud or at quiet volumes, making them perfect for either small group lessons or in front of an audience at one of our venues."
