Description:

Competitive rates, all ages. Complete beginners more than welcome.

My mission is to get you playing the guitar, bass guitar or drums (and most importantly ENJOYING IT) as quickly as possible!

My lessons are tailored to the individual - I appreciate that people learn at differently and I am happy to speed up/slow down/change tactics so you can learn at a pace that suits you.

It's up to you how much theory we go into - if your main intention is just to PLAY I am more than happy to accommodate you!

AVAILABILTY - MON-FRI 10:00-19:00. SAT 10:00-12:00.

PRICES

GUITAR/BASS/DRUM LESSON AT YOUR HOME - £10 per hour first lesson, £20 p/h second lesson onwards.

If you do not have a guitar/bass of your own I can bring one with me for you to use at no extra cost.

Please note I can only do drum lessons at your house if you have your own drum kit and very understanding neighbours!

GUITAR/BASS/DRUM LESSONS AT STUDIO - £20 per hour first lesson, £30 per hour second lesson onwards.

This extra £10 per hour covers the cost of a fully equipped rehearsal room - all you will need to bring is yourself.

Please note I cannot currently run studio sessions on weekday evenings.

I am also happy to teach for longer than an hour at a time at a slightly reduced rate - please e-mail me for more information.

I have been playing bass, guitar and drums for over 15 years now. I started on bass (thinking it would be easier as there were less strings and I wouldn't have to learn chords!) but eventually couldn't help myself and got a guitar and then a drum kit. Initially I didn't take any lessons and tried to work everything out for myself. This worked to a degree but when a friend's Dad offered to give me an hour guitar lesson I learned more in an hour than I had in the previous year!

I have played all three instruments in a range of bands over the years and have played shows all over the country. The bands I have been in have supported some fantastic international bands and have managed to release a number of recordings, some of which have been played on local and national radio (including a slot on Huw Stephens' Radio 1 show).

For several years I worked as a guitar/bass/drum tutor in the past for Clive's Music Schools - a franchise that offered music tutorage to children and adults.

I currently play drums in DOWNARD and guitar in THE BACKHAND JAGS and LANGUR.
