Bruno is equally comfortable playing the electric bass (fretted and fretless) and the double bass (both pizzicato and arco) with a very broad stylistic palette ranging from Pop and Jazz to Classical. Need Bass? Look no further!

UNIRIO conservatory double bass graduate, Bruno Migliari is a Bassist, Arranger and Composer with over 30 years professional experience. Bruno is mostly known for his sideman work with acclaimed Brazilian artist Frejat (since 2001), both in the studio and on stages around the world, as well as for his work as bassist on acclaimed musical TV shows The Voice Brasil (2012), Claro Q É Rock (2005/2006), and The Four Brasil (2020). He’s toured and recorded with Milton Nascimento, Ivan Lins, Simone, Marcos Valle, Ana Carolina, Maria Gadu, Lobão, Paulinho Moska and has released two albums as a leader: "Amicizia" (2007) and "Bicho Músico" (2018). Extremely genre-versatile, Bruno is particularly fluent in Rock, Funk, Jazz and Brazilian Music - as well as having lots of classical soundtrack sessions playing the double bass (both arco and pizzicato) under his belt. Bruno can easily handle written parts, charts or lead sheets, but if you can’t provide these, he will work from audio files and reference tracks. Being an experienced musical director and arranger, Bruno can also help with arrangement and production

Bruno is a great bass player and a reference in Brazil and the world. His versatility allows him to play with excellence in many different styles on both the electric and acoustic basses. Highly recommended!
