Ethan Burkhardt's training began at 5 years old on the violin which led to joining Earlham College’s orchestra as a Freshman in high school and attending Mark O’Connor’s fiddle camp where he studied with masters Mark O’Connor, Buddy Spicher, Rachel Barton, Darol Anger, and Bobby Hicks. While attending camp, bassist Victor Wooten showed up to jam and forever changed Burkhardt’s musical trajectory. He began studying bass heavily and eventually started taking private lessons with Cincinnati’s Rick Vizachero, an International Society of Bassists solo competition winner and member of the Cincinnati Symphony and Pops. The study paid off with a full ride scholarship to Millikin University, Decatur, IL where Burkhardt graduated in 2005 with a degree in Music Business.
The forming of Molasses serves as an outlet for their love of instrumental funk groups like The Meters, The New Mastersounds, and Grant Green among others.
