Bio / CV
Carlos Hidalgo, aka Carl Langdon, is an American bass player and composer. At 16 years of age he received his first electric bass from a close friend and mentor in which with countless hours of practice, proper guidance from professionals, his own experimentation of meshing different genres of sounds, and a deep passion for low-growly warm tones are where his wide range of experience, love, and commitment of today comes from. He’s a hard working professional with an incredible groove strict at improving himself everyday for what the demand of today’s music requires and although his training is extensive, he is best described as playing by feel.
