The CR5M Upright Bass is an absolute workhorse instrument that has paid for itself MANY times over now.  It’s traveled with me all over the country; it always comes out of the case, stable and consistent…ready to perform.  Rock solid.  And it sounds great; music directors have repeatedly and specifically requested that I bring this particular bass to be used on their projects. The CR6 RADIUS Bass Guitar has a powerful, clear tone….beautiful harmonics…effortless tapping.  Very comfortable to hold and to play.   I’m very excited to explore the potential of this new addition to the Radius family.   When it arrived, I pulled it out of the shipping box.  I was concerned as it was a wet day with flood watches around my area.  The box had gotten wet, so the delivery service was forced to flip the box upside down as the cardboard was starting to open.  This caused the bass to be shipped, for at least part of the trip, headstock down.  Despite the adverse conditions, the Radius CR6 was perfectly in tune when I unpacked it.  Expectations exceeded.

—Brittany Frompovich

Brittany Frompovich is a highly regarded teacher, clinician, multi-instrumentalist, and musician who currently resides in the Northern Virginia region. Jazz luminary Gerald Veasley introduced her to bassist Jimmy Haslip as “a beautiful player on both electric bass and double bass.” Her clients describe her as a consummate professional. Her bandmates describe her playing as “highly creative”, “solid”, and “beautiful”. Her solo performances are unique, poignant, earthy, organic, and highly creative.

As a working bassist, she regularly does shows on double bass, electric bass, and guitar, covering a wide range of genres. She is often called for pit work for choral and musical theater productions. She has shared the stage with Ron Holloway, Linwood Taylor, Jason Everett, Ashleigh Chevalier, Bruce Middle, Michael Dimin, Jon Wiley, Stewart McKinsey, Darren Michaels, Aaron Gibson, Edo Castro, Scott Varney, Scott Fernandes, Bill Clements, Trip Wamsley, Kent Beatty, and Toby Fairchild. As a solo bassist and solo artist she has opened for UK solo bassist Steve Lawson. As a bassist in a band setting, she has opened for the Grammy-nominated Danielle Nicole Band. She has even been granted opportunities to open for the legendary rock band, Heart, and the instrumental prog band, Soften the Glare.

As a multi-instrumentalist, she teaches lessons on cello, double bass, electric bass, and guitar. In 2019, she joined the staff at the University of Mary Washington as the Music Department’s Adjunct Contrabass Instructor.

She successfully teaches both recreational music makers and serious students who have started their own careers in music:

The dedication she shows to her students as well as the bass community has set an example for many others to follow.”– Michael Dimin, bassist, educator and author of The Art of Solo Bass and The Chordal Approach

“No Bull, she’s the real deal. No side job here; as teacher and musician, music is her life! Lady Bass is a true and much-needed representative of & for the arts & music professions. Those who know her & benefit from her teaching and friendship are lucky indeed.” – Roger Munch, former student and solo artist

Ms. Frompovich is passionate about music, music community, and the bass; she is always advancing her creative journey as a musician and as an educator. Brittany proudly uses and endorses Spector Basses, NS Designs, LightWave Basses, Warwick amps, Lathon Bass Wear, GHS strings, Nitewalker Bass Guitar Tube Preamps, Nordstrand Pickups, the Gizmotron 2.0 string sustainer, and Guardian Pro cables.
