Blues Guitar is one of my specialties..

I have been working as a professional musician since 1987. In that time, I've played many roles alongside a wide range of established and emerging talent, from around the world, including band leader, accompanist, music producer, composer, arranger, co-writer, teacher, coach and mentor. Along the way, I have continued to pursue my passion for education, teaching private music lessons to amateurs, professionals and hobbyists from all walks of life.

I have taught blues guitar lessons, for many years, including classes at the National Guitar Workshop.

Been teaching guitar for over a decade. I cater the lessons to the individual and what they are looking to get out of them. I played lead guitar in several bands before starting my solo thing. I will give you all the tools you need to be great.

Thanks,
Nathan

I've been playing guitar for 36 years, and teaching guitar for 14 years. When you study blues guitar with me you will learn chords, scales, practical music theory, improvisation, sight reading, tablature, and most importantly songs by your favorite artists. I love to teach people to play their favorite music!

Learning to play the blues is essential for every guitar player! Not only will you learn to create amazing solos, but your time investment will make your place among the descendants of all the great blues players of the 20th century. We will learn to read sheet music, play chords, and the blues scales in addition to some neat tips and tricks. Stevie (Ray Vaughan) will be proud of you! Please feel free to use the "Ask a question" feature. Thank you!

My guitar lessons are unique because I teach technical guitar skills by way of teaching classic guitar songs. Whether you are interested in learning Classic Rock, Spanish Guitar, or today's hits, you will take away not only a repertoire of your favorite songs, but the skills needed to sightread new songs on your own. For beginner students, we will work to identity songs that are both of interest to you and meet the needs to teach you pertinent skills. For intermediate to advanced students, we will work through songs you wish to learn while working through other genres to increase your musical exposure. Overall, my lessons are driven by your interests while subtlety incorporating the proper technical skills.

Are you looking for a great guitar teacher who will push you to be your best self? Students who take lessons with me are given specialized curriculums to suit their personal guitar goals and make sure they get the most out of their money. Lessons with me are slightly different because of my background. I started out playing classical guitar and this has shaped my guitar learning experiences, which in turn changed the way I teach. I come at things from a musical theory standpoint, with precision and a focus on improvement through better technique and a solid foundation in the basics. Send me a message and we can start learning together!

Music is a vast umbrella that covers many genres and styles. With our vast theoretical knowledge, you can rest assured that you will receive lessons specifically tailored to meet your musical goals. From Classical to Rock to Electronic Dance Music, we have you covered!

Witnessing the progression of a student's skills and knowledge is (by far) the most fulfilling aspect of our work. There is no better feedback than rocking to the product of your student's dedication under your teachings!

I am passionate about seeing students grow. I strive to be energetic yet patient when teaching to create a comfortable dynamic in my lessons that encourages excitement about music.
I have been playing guitar for 9 years, and have performed professionally with groups playing styles ranging from jazz, country, rock, blues, funk, and even musical theatre. I am capable of teaching beginners as well as intermediate students.
My lessons encourage a strong knowledge of fundamentals, so that a student can continue to develop years down the road with their acquired understanding of music, but I also am also careful to tailor lesson material according to a student's interests, personality, and natural learning methods.
