Gos Oduber
From a very young age, I started taking cuatro lessons and later switched to acoustic guitar. I continued with a basic course to master major and minor chords. After that, I expanded my knowledge with two years of lessons under teacher Chucho Hoek at the Rufo Wever School of Music. At the age of 19, I was approached to play bass for a pop music group. Here, I had to transfer my guitar knowledge to bass. Within two weeks, I had my first performance. That’s how I started with the electric bass. Along the way, I took some courses to learn the Bass Clef. I have been part of the bands Eagle Float, Cryptus Confession, Grupo Nos Mes, Grupo Amical, Raddix, Crystal Breeze, Dushi Band, Grupo di Betico, and the choir Voznan Alegre.
Genre: Pop, Tropical, Crioyo, Soca, Tipico guitar, Tipico, Zouk, Compa
