I enjoy seeing people engage with an instrument, and music in general, and I love to offer my skill sets to growing musicians! Looking back on 30+ years in music, I understand the art of playing an instrument. So, I offer this knowledge and my kind personality and calm patience to the community at an affordable rate.

 

Instruments

​​

• Cello (classical and/or non-classical)​

• Drumset - start off with good technique, and learn beats to build your own style from​​

• Guitar - learn your favorite songs, scale patterns to play in key, strumming patterns, and more​

• Electric bass - learn your favorite song, and the fundamentals of good, solid bass lines ​

• Mandolin - start off with good technique, learn tunes, and patterns so you can improv with any song​

Additional topics

​

• Music production, recording, mixing, arranging. If you are interested in learning about the mixed live-recorded music I do here from start to finish, I'd be honored to accelerate and smooth out your journey!

• Lessons for established music learning about theory. I grew up around, and have always known excellent musicians who understand little to no music theory. I see music theory as a tool and nothing more. I'd be happy to help you incorporate new concepts into your playing, including pentatonic scales, passing notes, major/minor patterns, and advanced concepts, depending on your goals.
