work with other musicians

A very talented musician and a complete teamplayer

When it comes to participation and collaboration in different projects, being a good musician is just the beginning. The most important skills to have are the ability to adapt and to be completely reliable and proactive. 

Throughout his entire career, Mauricio Nader has shown his best in every of those aspects. As a bass player, his motto has always been “this is going to be amazing, and we will get the best of us together”. 

This is why he has been requested to be a full-time member of different bands and ensembles, many times as a musical conductor, as well as a session musician. All of it for both recording studio and live instances. With many of these projects, he has recorded full albums, done live concerts and tours, performed with Symphonic Orchestras, made collaborations with duos and trios, and been distributed by important music labels.

His experience includes working with world class producers i.e. David Prater from Dream Theater, played with well-known musicians like Chris Adler (Megadeth, Lamb of God), Greg Howe (Michael Jackson), Doug Aldritch (Whitesnake, Dio), among others, and being artist roster of important bands like Ibanez, Markbass and Elixir Strings.

Based in Berlin, Germany, Mauricio is ready for his next musical adventure, teaming up with more artists who are crossing their musical path together.

Co-founder of his own band

Mauricio is the co-founder of the band EYES AWAITING along with the talented Portuguese singer-songwriter Erica Bianca. They started the project in May 2023 in Berlin, Germany, where both are based in.

Having met each other in the metal scene of the German capital, similar interests in music drove Mauricio and Erica to create EYES AWAITING. Immediately they started working on ideas and writing songs, testing them in a couple of private shows in Cologne and Berlin at the end of last year.

Their sound is a mix of modern metal with classical music elements. Their message is delivered through a powerful voice that ranges from very delicate to mysterious. Their music and lyrics cover topics of human emotions, day-to-day struggles, deep traumas and the joys of life, some based on stories, some on their own experience.

Live Session musician:

From a small club to the Berlin Philharmonie, from a cozy bar to an outstanding large Rock Festival, Mauricio has been playing concerts and tours with many many artists of different genres. His experience has led him to perform in every kind of venue: Theaters, concert halls, small and big arenas, bars, open airs, etc.

As an active member of the music industry, he knows perfectly how things work: Few to almost-none possibilities for rehearsals, usually little time for soundchecking, last-minute repertoire changes, etc. All of this combined with very good reading skills, knowledge of different music genres, and the proper dress code and stage presence, according to every event. 

Contact us if you need a complete and reliable bass player as a session musician.

Some of the colleagues Mauricio has worked with:

“Mauricio is an amazing bass player. We make a world-class music crossover with a full symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists and a band, to perform an immense and always sold-out show called “Rock Symphony Night” at the most prestigious venues in Germany, including the Berlin Philharmonie. He immediately understood the repertoire and gave a powerful and groovy rhythm foundation to the entire ensemble, which contains more than 200 musicians on stage. He is a complete problem-solver and a teamplayer, too, which is always very appreciated”

- Wolfgang Roese - Music Conductor and Artistic Director of the Orchestral and Choral Society (ORSO), Freiburg, Germany

“We had a very important participation in a big festival in Hannover, Germany, on a Saturday, and on Tuesday of the same week, our bass player got really ill and was not able to perform. I got the contact of Mauricio from a studio owner who highly recommended him, and learned the entire setlist in less than 48 hours. He only had one rehearsal the day before with the drummer and the guitar player, and that was it. His performance at the stage was absolutely fantastic, but also his stage presence and his adaptable way made everything easy and smooth. Completely recommended!”

- Max Meißner, “Kesh”, pop-rap singer and composer, Berlin, Germany

Some of the colleagues Mauricio has recorded with:

“Excellent studio sessionist in recording the electric bass for my album "Quasar", I was more than satisfied with his work” 

- Claudio Cordero, award winning guitarist and composer, Santiago, Chile, and Mexicali, Mexico.

“I have known Mauricio for a long time, and he has been part of many recordings I have done mostly with artists from the U.S.A. I just call him to come into my studio, and without previous listening, I open the session, connect his bass to the mixing desk, and tell him: “I need this”. Then in just one or two takes the track is ready. I really enjoy working with him because it is fast and has a very good taste of music” 

- Daniel Cordero, Music Producer, Dungeon Mob, Berlin, Germany
