Medeski, Martin And Wood bassist Chris Wood studied composition, and jazz and classical bass in his hometown Boulder, Colorado. In 1989, he went to the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, and studied with Dave Holland, Geri Allen and Bob Moses, but soon changed his enrollment to part-time in order to play with Moses. In 1990, the two musicians toured as sidemen for an Israeli saxophonist with another U.S. musician, John Medeski. After they returned, Wood and Medeski got involved with NYC's downtown scene. Besides being one third of MMW, Wood has performed with many musicians, including Marc Ribot, Elliot Sharp, Ned Rothenberg, John Zorn, and Sam Bennett, in his group Chunk. ~ Joslyn Layne, All Music Guide
