Hi, I’m Penn, a professional bass player and session musician from Malaysia with over 15 years of experience in live performances, television productions, orchestral concerts, and studio recordings.

I’ve had the privilege of performing alongside some of Malaysia’s most respected artists and participating in major televised programs, award shows, and large-scale concerts. Known for versatility, precision, and a strong musical sensibility, I adapt across genres — from pop, R&B, jazz, orchestral productions, to live television house bands.

Beyond performing, I serve as a Part-Time Lecturer at the Faculty of Music, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Shah Alam, mentoring and guiding aspiring musicians.

Through my platform PennBassChannel, I share performances, educational content, and professional insights with a growing community of bass players and music enthusiasts worldwide.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with and performing alongside some of the most respected names in Malaysian and regional music:

Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza • Dato’ Ramli MS • Hetty Koes Endang • Hael Husaini • Stacy • Misha Omar • Liza Hanim • Aishah • Yuna • Raihan • Aliff Aziz • Hazama • Faizal Tahir & The Royale FT Force • Naqiu • Aliff Satar • Siti Nordiana • Atilia • Estranged

I’ve also contributed to numerous television productions, orchestral collaborations, and large-scale concerts alongside leading musical directors and producers.
