About Me

My name is Rob Wasson. I have just turned 50 years of age on June 19th of this year and live in a great house in Sultan Washington. My wife Kate and I love the quiet of having our back yard right up against the Sultan High School baseball fields. To the west of us is the High School football field too. The only time we hear anything out back is when we hear the band rehearsing or the football or baseball game going on during the early evenings of spring or Friday nights in the fall. I am 6-4 and a big guy around 300lbs. Did I mention that I love music and have my own recording studio in my home. I love to work and create. I write my own songs from time to time.

I also love playing bass guitar and play often live in clubs or on recording projects for different musicians I have met in the Northwest. I like playing live cause of the interaction with people in the club or arena.

My wife Kate are very involved in our church and belong to the Vineyard Community Church in Mt. Vernon where my very good friend Randy Butler is the pastor.

More about me, I have a day job working as a consultant for Builders Hardware & Supply Inc. It is a good job but if you were to ask me it pays the bills but not much more. I really would love to be full time as a musician but that is a difficult nut to crack. I supliment my income doing recording, playing bass guitar live in bands and once in a while on a record.

Thanks for listening....

My Interests

I love to camp and go fishing, I love music and playing different instruments like keyboards, percussion but most of all bass guitar. I have been playing this instrument primarily since I was about 16 years of age. I love to record and especially love recording and playing worship songs. I write some of my own and have my own studio in my home to record songs of my own. Sometimes I have friends over and we record their songs. I love to help produce and arrange songs.

I'd like to meet:

I think of anybody in history I would like to meet Jesus Christ and to live in the time when he was here. I think that would be incredible/difficult, but most of all rewarding to see him actually on earth. I know I will see him one day soon in heaven.

Music:

Steely Dan, Sting, Mutemath, David Sandborn, Larry Carlton, David Benoit, Jazz Minestry, Paul McCartney, The Beatles, Chicago, Matt Redmond, Vineyard worship and many others I have forgot to mention...I like all types I just cant remember all of them....(old age I guess)

Movies:

Action movies...along as it doesnt suck I will probably like it. A good thriller is also something I go to the theatre to see.

Television:

C.S.I. Numb3rs, Sports, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet...

Books:

the B.I.B.L.E. Chronicles of Narnia

Heroes:

Jesus...my mom...Drell Butler (old pastor not gone to heaven...)
