Port Arthur \u2014 Carl Richardson could easily be described as the “Music Man”. Richardson, 47, has been playing a musical instrument since his early teens, starting with the trumpet in 8th grade at Vidor Junior High.<\/p>\n
He also plays guitar, piano and the drums, but his passion is being a bassist.<\/p>\n
Richardson performs weekly, and when not on stage, he’s teaching future musicians at Lamar State College Port Arthur.<\/p>\n
Richardson enjoys sharing his talent, and recently began offering private lessons. If interested, you can email him at Carlonbass@gmail.com<\/p>\n
Richardson’s hometown of Vidor honored the musician by inducting him into the city’s Walk of Fame, which celebrates entertainers with ties to the local community.<\/p>\n
