Music is my life. As cheesy as that phrase goes, for me, it holds true. I'm Andrew. Everything I do and have been doing has been geared towards music. I've been in one working/gigging band or other without break for the past 5 years. I began intensely learning to play guitar at the age of 9 and have not stopped. The second I started learning I knew that that was what I wanted to do. I took lessons of my own as a kid, which helped shape me greatly. I then picked up bass at the age of 13.
Ive taught personalized lessons for over 3 1/2 years now without a single complaint. At this point in my musical career, the majority of my experience and attitude has come from being "in the field". Ive played South By South West, Westheimer Block Party, opened up for bands like the Misfits and Rage Against the Machine, shared the stage with bands like Minus the Bear and Echo and the Bunnymen, and been on tour and lived the whole life more often than not!

I've loved music since I was able to walk. When I was 5 or 6, I would listen to my mother's stereo system, with Jim Croce playing on the 8-Track tape deck.....(ok, so I'm aging myself a little bit). I would lay on the floor in between the speakers which were turned inward toward my ears. I could lay there for hours, tapping my toes to "Bad Bad Leroy Brown", "Roller Derby Queen", "You Don't Mess Around with Jim", and many others. I would also listen to the Beatles, Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", and "Revolution" and be completely taken away. I didn't realize it then, but what captivated me were the songs that were written to tell stories, and the music that brought the stories to life. As I grew into my early teens, I got into Kiss, Alice Cooper, Rush, Ted Nugent, and Jimi Hendrix. (His version of "All Along the Watch Tower" was much better than Bob Dylan's original version)

During my high school years I got more into Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, because of it's...

I've been drumming for over seven years, starting with a percussion background in the school band. Since moving to the drumset I continue to open up to new styles and instruments galore, the combinations and options for studying never end. :) I am currently studying jazz and Latin music among other things related to music so I can show the foundations to playing these styles while I delve further and further into it myself. I have been teaching for two years already but consider myself a student and a teacher and I believe students help the teacher just as much as I will be helping you, so I look forward to our lessons!

Combine theory and practice, training focused on theory, sight seeing, ear-training, along with technically building strength and dexterity in your fingers along with musical internalization, introduction to different musical styles and notable composers and their contributions to music developments as well as exemplary compositions. Goal end is to have prepared the learner pathway and readiness for achieving professional career in classical and modern genres.

Hello and welcome! I currently offer lessons for Guitar, Voice, Piano, and Music Production.

Music is my passion. It's one of those great things in the world that you wouldn't want to be with out.
During my journey with the guitar I have had a chance to study with virtuoso players such as Paul Gilbert, Chris Broderick, Dan Gilbert, and some of the top guitarists and musicians in the business. I have recorded with Doug Pinnick from Kings X and have played with one of the biggest Christian bands in Los Angeles playing for thousands of people as a member of "Press Play."

In addition, I hold a degree from one of the best contemporary guitar schools in the world. At Musicians institute I had a wonderful opportunity to study and play with some of the best teachers and students learning every style of music. It was one of the most musically enriching experiences! I have produced and worked on projects for members of Melissa Ethridge as well as mixing projects for jazz virtuoso...

Jeffrey is a drummer, mainly. He started learning drums way back in the last century, a time long ago when even Google wasn't around. He was taught at the prestigious Holub Middle School in the Alief school district and very quickly became a band geek. This geekiness continued on into high school where he was a member of the Alief Taylor Drum Line and learned the marching tenor drums. He graduated magna cum laude from the University of Houston in 2009 with a degree in Media Production.

Jeffrey's true musical passion, though, is the drum set. He was the drummer for the Holub Jazz Band during its historic visit to the Midwest Clinic in 1999. As such, he is very experienced in a number of genres including Big Band, Blues, Funk, Rock, Funk Rock, and Progressive Metal.

Jeffrey is an autodidact pianist and composer and has been arranging MIDI music for over seven years. He even has the ability to play the keyboard and drums at the same time! As a composer, he's composed the music...

Having been a public school teacher as well as a private and group piano instructor, I've observed how differently students "digest" information, and piano lessons are a great way to make use of different learning syles. I emphasize knowing HOW to practice before you leave so you'll be successful at home, and you are welcome to call me with problems during the week so you don't lose a week in progressing with your lessons. I also perform with an orchestra and want to feel proficient among my peers, so I really know how it feels to make a mistake in front of everyone. I am here to help you feel proud of your progress.
My primary teaching objective is to have fun as I assist you on this wonderful journey into music!

Hello!
I am a recent graduate of the prestigious Cleveland Institute of Music majored in Violin Performance. At CIM, I also received my Suzuki certification to teach up to book four.
Not too long ago, I got married in LA and moved to Houston TX to study with the great violin pedagogue - Paul Kantor who teaches at Rice University. I am really loving Houston so far. Everyone seems so nice around here!

I enjoy teaching, playing the violin, singing, playing games, and lemon squares. I especially love children and have numerous experiences with kids diagnosed with ADHD (or formally known as ADD).

"Niqui" is more than just a pretty face, She has been singing since the age of 4 in the church choir. So its no wonder that sometime later she would show up as a support vocalist for Artists such as Micah Stampley, Kim Burell, Kurt Carr, Juanita Bynum and so many more award winning artists. Self-taught vocalists of her caliber don't come around too often which has afforded her the opportunity to travel around the world doing what she loves best being a vocalist.

I began playing guitar at age twelve when I asked my dad to start showing me a few chords. It didn’t take long before I came to my own and began practicing many hours a day.

As I got more and more serious about music throughout high school I wanted to take my experience to the next level and so I auditioned for and was accepted to Houston’s High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. While there I performed with the school’s Small Group Combo and Big Band.

After high school I wanted to go to the next level once again and auditioned for and was accepted to a few different music colleges but decided that Boston’s New England Conservatory was the best fit for me. Here, I had the opportunity to study and perform with some of the world’s best jazz performers and composers. As a sophomore I was a part of a group who received the Honors Jazz Ensemble award and as a senior I was awarded a scholarship for composition.

Every summer since the age of thirteen I...
