Jackson D.

Hi, I’m Jackson. In 6th grade, I started playing the cello in my school orchestra. Throughout that time I started playing the guitar and eventually found the bass upright and bass guitar. I want to help others find what music has brought to my life. If you just want to learn chords to play songs and sing along that’s great! If you want to learn everything you can about music and your instrument that’s great too! And maybe you don’t know what you want. That’s totally okay! Music looks different for everyone. I just want to help you learn and find out what music is to you, and help you become the best musician you can be! At the end of the day, music is human expression. And I just hope music can help you express yourself like it has for me. Some Qualifications I have: Throughout school, I had weekly students who took Guitar and Bass lessons from me. I’ve played at venues around the St. Louis area and at Steifel Theater. I studied composition and chord theory in school and had a private instructor I studied with. And of course, the time I put into practice and learning. I practice for about six hours a day. Whether that is playing, rehearsals, studying, songwriting or even just intently listening to different styles and genres of music! If I seem like a good fit to you I would love to do everything I can to help you through your musical journey!
