Victor Lemonte Wooten is one of the most celebrated electric bassists of all time. His secret seems to lie in doing his own thing, breaking boundaries and defying categorization along the way. Chip Stern wrote in Musician Magazine that Victor is "proof that all men are not created equal." To this Victor says, "A lot of guys who have been around for a long time are shocked when they see some of the things I am doing. Fortunately, they like it."

His performances as a member of the Grammy-award winning Béla Fleck and the Flecktones have gained him the adoration of bass players and music fans worldwide.  In 1998, he received his third Bass Player of the Year award from Bass Player Magazine (the only bassist to have received this award three times) and was named one of the Top 10 Bass Innovators of the '90s by the same publication. Also in 1998, Victor won his second Grammy (Best Instrumental Composition for Almost 12 from The Flecktones album Left of Cool) and Down Beat magazine voted him Talent Most Deserving Wider Recognition.

His third solo CD, "Yin Yang", received a Grammy nomination in 2000 as "Contemporary Jazz Album of the Year".
