About Nathan East

A San Diego native and founding member of the chart-topping contemporary jazz group Fourplay, East was 16 years old when he got his first break and found himself on the road with Barry White. The next time the phone rang, Quincy Jones was on the line. The calls kept coming and for the last 40 years, East has been churning out hit songs with artists as legendary as Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Michael Jackson, Phil Collins, Whitney Houston, Beyoncé, Barbra Streisand and Stevie Wonder. East credits his eclectic roots to his upbringing, as one of eight children raised in San Diego. Music was a staple in his household and he started out on the cello before finding a foundation in the bass. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music from the University of California, San Diego.
