I can show you how to use sound equipment, from mixing boards, to audio interfaces, to software, how to connect equipment, and how to use it for live performances or in a recording environment. Microphones, speakers, amplifiers, computer needs...yep. I was a voting member of NARAS (National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences).

I can teach you the theory behind writing songs, how to record and engineer music, produce electronic music, mix and master. I can show you how to copyright your work and teach you how to make your music make money for you.

Alto and Tenor Saxophone lessons will have to learn to read some notation and develop proper embouchure and breathing techniques. It can take a little time to create pleasing sounds and play songs, but I can get you reading music up through improvising live with a band.

I was trained classically for a short amount of time as an adult. I can teach you how to sound the way you want, show you what your voice is capable of, how to use a microphone for live performances and recording. Great at providing a relaxed environment to feel safe experimenting with your voice.

Hand percussion to drum kit, I can teach you how to read notes or play by feel. I go over rudiments and patterns and dynamic control. Drum kit lessons available only at your location.

From the basics of how to hold your bass up through music theory and playing your favorite songs, I can teach you how to slap, tap, and hold a groove for a band in a small number of lessons.

Starting from the parts of the guitar and how to hold it, up through scales, songwriting, music theory, and performing songs you enjoy, I can teach you just about anything you want to learn to do with a guitar. I've built some of my own.
