A graduate in Hindustani Classical music, Suman has been playing and teaching music for over 12 years, and has been on music shows such as The Voice, MTV Unplugged, Coke Studio, etc. In 2018, he started the School of Bass as a YouTube channel for bass guitar lessons in Hindi. One needn't have any previous musical knowledge to strum at the beginner's course. The lessons aim to reach and help more bass players who are comfortable in learning in Hindi than English. The teaching is through pre-recorded video lessons, but he schedules a discussion forum every day where he fields questions, so that you don't have to wait long to get an answer. Besides music lessons, his channel also has vlogs from the backstage at big venues, tours, rehearsals, and gigs, which can be educational too for a budding musician.
