Patrick has been playing music all his life. As a child he used to beat on pots and pans with cooking utensils. Not much has changed, as those same pots and pans are still his favorite instrument. In the course of his life he has studied every genre of music conceivable including rock, metal, flamenco, classical, jazz, country, Latin, ska, fusion, Indian Carnatic music, and everything in between. Constantly evolving, Patrick is always learning different instruments. To date he has experience playing violin, piano, trumpet, guitar, bass, lute, cornetto, drums, and pedal steel. He has aspirations to learn the sitar, tablas, and sarangi next.

After a few years on the road he began acting, landing roles in commercials, television, and film, including repeated spots on the...

Jill holds a Bachelor's degree in Music Education and has master's work in choral music. For many years she has taught private and group music lessons to all ages and many varying styles of singing and instrumental music.

I've been playing guitar for 15+ years. My favorite styles are rock, blues, pop, folk, soul, and country. I learned through both private lessons and independent study.

In addition to private lessons, I've learned through various method books and through the insight and direction of more experienced musicians I've played with. I've played with various bands/artists in Central Florida and performed regularly in church ensembles.

Currently, I play guitar at Real Life Christian Church. They're a multi-site church with roughly 4,000 weekly attendees and campuses in Clermont, Orlando, and Kissimmee.
