I have been playing guitar and bass professionally for over ten years in various situations, including original bands, function/cover bands, session work and international touring. I have taught for over eight years, working with children and adults in one-on-one and group settings. I play all styles of guitar such as slide, rock, metal, funk, reggae, blues, jazz, flamenco and country, with specialization in creative rock guitar techniques.
Teaching between Hove and Eastbourne, I am a friendly, flexible teacher, either taking you through my own syllabus or tailoring the lessons to focus on any aspects of your playing you wish!
Project-based sessions are available and exclusive to The Tone Workshop! I will work on any area or problem chosen by you using a full, modern digital recording studio setup (studio lessons available in Hove only).
Some common project topics covered are: Timing, tuning, tone, composition, session skills, equipment and effects, transcription/notation, recording parts and harmony guitars.
One-to-one lessons are delivered in one hour sessions either at The Tone Workshop or the client’s location, paid for in advance in blocks of four lessons. A single introductory lesson is available to try me out. Group lessons are done at my premises and are most suitable for friends and siblings wishing to share the cost.
I am CRB checked and hold a degree (BA Hons) in Professional Musicianship from University of Sussex (BIMM). Trinity or Rockschool grades and exams can be followed if required.
Get in touch and we can start working on your playing now!
