Prof. Erik A. Unsworth, M.M. String Bass/ Electric Bass
Erik Unsworth joined the music faculty of the University of Texas at El Paso in 2003. He is a Visiting Assistant Professor of String Bass, Electric Bass, and Jazz & Commercial Music studies.
Prior to joining the faculty at UTEP, Mr. Unsworth held faculty positions at the University of Delaware and Kutztown University (PA). He also held a one-year position at Appalachian State University (NC), serving as instructor of Jazz and Music Industry Studies.
A native of Northern New York State, Mr. Unsworth received his Master of Music degree from Indiana University in 1996. While in Bloomington, his primary instructors were Mr. David Baker (jazz studies and Improvisation), Mr. Bruce Bransby (string bass) and Dr. David Dzubay (composition). Mr. Unsworth also holds a Bachelor of Music degree in theory & composition from Appalachian State University, and a technical degree in Studio and Live Recording from New York City’s Institute of Audio Research.
After moving back to the New York area in 1997, Mr. Unsworth became immersed in the east-coast freelance scene. He has been fortunate to have been able to perform with many of the rising talents in the music industry over a wide range of styles, including Orchestral and Chamber music, Jazz, Blues, R&B and Latin music. He has also toured the world playing small-group and big band jazz, in addition to recent trips to Europe with Broadway musical-theater companies. Mr. Unsworth’s background in composition/arranging and studio technology has led to taking on the role of record producer for a number of the artists with whom he performs regularly.
Recent recording projects in which he has served as bassist and producer include Miami-based Latin/Jazz/Pop vocalist Elvy Rose’s Things I Do For You CD, Philadelphia-area modern Jazz vocalist Ellen Lebowitz’ Smokin’ Aloud, and 2 recordings with New York- area pianist Dan DeChellis for the Sachimay record label.

Prof. Adrián Terrazas-González Flute/Saxophone/Clarinet/Latin Percussion/Composer/Arranger
Born on October 17, 1975 and raised in Chihuahua, Chih. México, Adrián Terrazas-González grew up surrounded by the traditional music of Central-America, from Danzon, Boleros and Rumba to Son and Mambo. Adrián began developing his musical ability at the age of 10. He was inclined to play the flute with an understanding of classical music and a peculiar attraction to ancient Aztec music. Five years later he took on the tenor saxophone. His grandmother, a "Rumba Nut" according to Adrián, urged her grandson in that direction, but the young player had already picked out a model for himself -John Coltrane.
2001 was a year that would profoundly impact Adrián’s music. While pursuing his sociological and musical studies at The University of Texas at El Paso he learned more about the transmission of these ideas and theories through music. In an effort to track the development of certain philosophical and spiritual traditions observed by ancient cultures, Adrián arranged to meet, learn and creatively collaborate with musicians involved with traditions originating from West Africa. One of his main interests was the Yoruba tradition (predominantly out of western Nigeria), the ancient African religion underlying Santeria (Cuba and Puerto Rico), Candombl (Baha, Brazil), Vodun (Haiti) and Cu Taan (México).
In 2004, Adrián joined The Mars Volta in the studio on the album Frances the Mute and continues to work with the band (as full flesh member) on subsequent albums (Live Scabdates 2005, Amputechture 2006) and all The Mars Volta side projects (movie scores, DVD‘s etc). The group includes guitarist and band leader Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez, “…one of the most creative writers in Rock music. Playing with his band has helped develop in me a higher level of awareness and creativity” -Adrián Terrazas-González , lyricist/vocalist Cedric Bixler-Zavala, bassist Juan Alderete, guitarist Paul Hinojos-González, drummer Thomas Pridgen, percussionist Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez and keyboardist Isaiah Ikey Owens. Working with The Mars Volta and Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez gained Adrián further exposure and renown, particularly in Europe. The Mars Volta also appeared as the musical guest on the Henry Rollins Show in April 2007.
Adrián’s solid performance and versatility grants him the opportunity to perform with a wide variety of professionals in the musical world. Adrián has shared the stage and recorded with the likes of Larry Harlow, Erik A. Unsworth, Dr. Willy Hill, Dr. Donald Wilkinson, Damo Suzuki, Lenny Castro, Money Mark Nishita, Jay Azzolina, Los Lobos, Reggie Young, Ozomatli, EMI Gospel Artist Smokie Norful, Juan Alderete and Lisa Papineau/Big Sir (Und Und Die Scheiße Ändert Sich Immer 2006), Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez Quintet (Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez 2005, Please Heat This Eventually 2007, Se Dice Bisonte, No Búfalo 2007, music scoring for the Guillermo Arriaga Jordan and Jorge Hernandez Aldana film El Búfalo de la Noche performed by The Mars Volta), Robert Carranza, Thomas Pridgen, John Frusciante, Hernan Hecht, Mark Aanderud, Jonathan Hischkz and Deantoni Parks, among others.
Adrián’s professional involvement with the music industry has continued to develop under his own publishing and record label El Regimen Music BMI/EL REGIMEN Music México. He collaborates with an eclectic number of international musicians, tours on an intensive yearly worldwide schedule, while at the same time teaches workshops to numerous school districts and universities around the world.
