About Christian
I have been playing guitar for 16 years and teaching guitar for 2 years. I play in bands in the Atlanta music scene.
I have a childhood background in piano and saxophone, but guitar has been my true love.
I have a friendly and fun teaching style. My particular areas of expertise are blues and rock music and I can teach beginners, intermediate, and all but the most advanced guitarists.
I can teach beginner piano/keyboard players and teach songwriting and beginner music theory as well.
Some of my favorite artists and influences are Jerry Garcia, John Frusciante, Derek Trucks, and Jimmy Herring.
