Robert's exemplary and diverse career all began when he was a very small boy. His magical, musical journey began with his Grandfather, Donald Mcullick, a country singer/guitarist, who spent the 1950's touring and performing with blockbuster artists such as Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly and Roy Orbison. Grandpa would take his young protégé out to the swing under the apple tree in the backyard and show him songs on an old acoustic guitar. He would later give that guitar to Robert. That guitar was the key to the music box of Robert's life. A life long dedicated to the art and craft of music.

Robert's high school years were very non-traditional. While most students spent time at football games and pep rallies, Robert spent his time performing in pit orchestras and composing for local theater companies. His extensive theater credits include work with the Hampton Playhouse, the Portsmouth Academy of Performing Arts, the Seacoast Reparatory Company and the Portland Stage Company. Robert...

Hello! My name is Bill and I have been immersed in music my entire life and have had the opportunity to remain a full time performer/teacher for the last 15 years. I have performed and recorded with various artists throughout the entire U.S. and Canada and continue to keep an active schedule both as a performer and as a private instructor.
As an instructor, I look at each student as an individual, with a unique set of goals, and design a lesson plan that is both fun and informative in achieving these goals. Most importantly, I want to have my students playing music! Regardless of their style or musical tastes, I seek to provide each student with a path that will allow them to participate in the music that they love.

I am an all around musician who loves to share my knowledge and passion for music with others. I find it just as important to know how to teach someone as it is to know about the instrument you are teaching.
