Who is travis dykes…
After getting his start in the professional music industry at an early age, Travis has been a full-time touring and studio musician for over 11 years in Nashville, TN. From the start of his music career, he has always felt a passion for teaching and has taught hundreds of bass and guitar students. This passion prompted the start of a YouTube channel to provide bass lessons and a behind-the-scenes look at the professional music industry. Over the past few years Travis’ YouTube channel has grown to over 200,000 subscribers, and he continues to create videos weekly. Although many of his lessons and insights come through video, Travis recently authored his first book with “Hal Leonard Publishing” entitled “Do It Yourself” Bass Method — an instructional book for bass players. Travis continues to travel and work as a touring musician with artist such as: Charity Gayle, Gone West, Colbie Caillat, Cece Winans, Carrie Underwood, Jordy Searcy, Eric Paslay, Stephen Day, Danny Gokey, Riley Clemmons, James Wilson, Draylin Young, Sarai Rivera and many others. Outside of his music career, Travis enjoys being home with his wife and ministering at his local church every Sunday.
