About Dylan D.
5.0
(5)
I have a BA in Music from NYU and have been teaching private guitar lessons for 10 years. I am an expert guitarist, composer, arranger and teacher. In my lessons I am able to cover many topics, including rock, metal, jazz, classical, improvisation, transcription, composition, harmonic and rhythmic theory, general dexterity and more. My lessons are interdisciplinary, designed to improve musical comprehension, creative wherewithal, and confidence. Let's build something together.
In 2009 I created the visionary metal band PYRRHON. We've released four full-length albums, all of which have received critical acclaim from noteworthy publications, including Decibel, PopMatters, Chicago Reader, Quietus, and Pitchfork. We have extensive international touring experience and have worked with several renowned metal labels, including Willowtip and Relapse Records.
Outside of PYRRHON, I record and perform experimental solo-guitar music, and I also recently joined the influential math rock band Yowie (Skin Graft Records).

Dylan is a very good guitar coach. He is good at recognizing where you need the most work. And instructing you in that area.

Dylan's an awesome instructor! He's patient, friendly, and open to helping you learn whatever style of guitar playing you'd like. And really flexible and understanding with scheduling. I hadn't played guitar in years when I started back up with Dylan and he was great and informative with helping me through the basics again.
