About Andrea B.

I have been teaching professionally for the past 15 years and love it! Academically, I hold two degrees (production & performance) cum laude at the prestigious Berklee College Of Music in Massachusetts and have ever since worked as a guitarist, bassist and producer. I was fortunate enough to work as a musical director for grammy nominated blues artist Bobby "Hurricane" Spencer. My duet with guitar legend Scott Henderson, titled "Bulldozer", was also featured in "The Loner - Tribute To Jeff Beck" album along with several famous guitarists. I have been enthusiastically reviewed and/or interviewed by Vintage Guitar Magazine, All About Jazz, M Music and Musicians Magazine, LA Weekly, Boston Globe and currently write instructional columns for Guitar Club, Italy's most read guitar publication. During my many years as a guitarist I have studied with the following greats: John Pisano, Steve Trovato, Julien Kasper, Tim Miller, Carl Verheyen. Regi Wooten and Peter Mazza. In my many years as a teacher, I have helped students of all levels from beginners to fellow professionals. My philosophy is to make the learning process as enjoyable as possible and at the same time make sure the student keeps marking solid progress towards their goals.

Andrea is a phenomenal guitar teacher. He made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. He listened to me and has geared the lessons towards my specific goals. Not only do I feel like I’m already improving as a beginner quickly but I’m having fun too. I look forward to continuing to take lessons with him.
