2007 has been a breakthrough year for Burlington-born bassist Aram Bedrosian. With the release of a self-titled debut album recorded entirely with one bass guitar, he has stepped into whole new light. Thanks to a balance of melody and technique, he has developed a unique instrumental voice and his funk-driven, classically flavored solo compositions have earned him a growing international fan-base comprised of musicians and non-musicians alike.

"Listening to this album, you hear Bedrosian make the transformation from a great bassist to a technical virtuoso....It's remarkable work." --State of Mind Magazine

In addition to being a soloist, Aram has performed with a range of notable artists. This year he has played with Jen Hartswick, well known for her work in the Trey Anastasio band and he has also toured with the Gordon Stone. His work on Gordon's album, "Rhymes with Orange", helped earn it "Best VT Instrumental Album of 2005"-The Times Argus. He is currently recording and performing with the up-and-coming rock/country group Rumble Doll who just signed a distribution deal in Nashville for their debut, "Another Fine Undefined Life". Other groups he has worked with include The Turkey Bouillon Mafia, Avi & Celia, Aaron Flinn and more.

Aram has his own bass teaching studio in Burlington and is also a former VT Guitar Summit winner. His unique playing style has attracted students from all over the world via an internet teaching site where he teaches side-by-side with bassists Stu Hamm (Steve Via) and Kai Eckhardt (Al Di Meola).
