Early life and education

Colley was born on November 24, 1963[ citation needed ] in Los Angeles, California. [5] He began studying bass at age 11 after his older brother Jim, a drummer, said he "thought it would be cool to have another rhythm section instrument in the family." [3] [5] [6] At 13, he began studying with bassist Monty Budwig and played twice a week at a club in Pasadena, where he spent three years being mentored by musicians such as Jimmy Rowles. [7] [5] [6] At Eagle Rock High School, he studied under John Rinaldo. [8] [9] [6] [7] [5] He auditioned at California Institute for the Arts after learning that Charlie Haden taught there and was granted a full-ride scholarship. [6] [10] [11] [7] He studied with Haden and Fred Tinsley, and began touring and recording with jazz singer Carmen McRae prior to graduating in 1988. He then moved to New York City. [2] [7] [5] [12] [11] [6]
