Kanoa Mendenhall
Born:
Kanoa Mendenhall is a bassist living in NYC. Born in Japan, at a young age Kanoa moved with her family to the Central Coast of California, near Monterey. Her parents shared their love of music with her, and from childhood music helped Kanoa through periods of hardship and instability. She started learning the cello at age 10, inspired by Oscar Pettiford, before transitioning to the bass in middle school. After entering high school, she started working in the Bay Area with musicians such as Bruce Forman, Vince Lateano, and Dick Whittington. Kanoa moved to New York City in 2015 to study at Columbia University and the Juilliard School, where she was fortunate to attend studio classes led by Ron Carter, and study bass with Ben Wolfe and Ugonna Okegwo

Conversely, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme (Impulse!, 1965) perfectly captured the spiritual ...
