Hello! I'm Cole and I have been playing guitar for 14 years. It is my passion and mission to share music and fellowship in it with my friends and colleagues. I live in Nashville, TN and am an A&R executive for a publishing company. I want to share my knowledge and years of playing guitar with others to as many of those who are eager to learn. While I have not formally taught guitar before I have many years of experience teaching an array of subjects at summer camps around the U.S. I assure that my lessons will be as personable and relaxed as possible to make sure that you are getting the most out of it you can. I look forward to meeting and rocking with you soon!

I've played the blues guitar for over a decade. My students can expect a thorough study of the style and the techniques that make the blues unique.

My lessons structured around 2 things:
-Improving your instrumental skills (technique, fingerboard knowledge)
-Growing in your musicianship (establish the ability to study guitar & music independently, ear training, learning songs, music theory, harmony, and grooves)

To help you achieve those, I will offer:
-clear and impartial analysis and advice
-easy to understand *materials in PDFs (scale exercises, chords, voicing shapes and concepts, harmony and rhythm materials, harmony practice sheets, lead sheets, songs for you to listen to, and more)

Those materials will help you visualize:
-Scales & Arpeggios
-Chords, Other voicings and substitutions

we’ll also work on:
-Learning songs
-Hearing and analyzing lines and harmony changes
-Transcribing
-Establishing a solid time feel and rhythmic feel

In the first class, we’ll take some time to figure out your specific needs, and come up with a plan to help you meet them.
