Rusty

Rebekah Wishart, affectionately known as Rusty, is an electric and double bass player, singer, songwriter and music teacher who started on the Hong Kong music scene at the age of 15, encouraged by her mentor, the legendary American bassist Flynn Adams. While living in Kunming from age 16 to 18, she formed the six piece Cuban folk and salsa group, Guarapo. During her time in China, Rusty was invited to perform at the 2014 Shanghai JZ Festival with Chinese pop singer Huang Xibei. At the JZ Festival she was further inspired by her experience attending a masterclass with jazz bassist Marcus Miller. In 2021 she completed her degree in jazz performance at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where she was trained by Brazilian jazz bassist Mario Caribé and world renowned saxophonist Tommy Smith OBE, and discovered a passion for Brazilian music, songwriting and Scottish folk music.
