About Brandon

You may not know this - or haven't noticed this - but, two people can pick up the exact same guitar and strum the same chord and sound differently. My philosophy with music instruction is to focus on quality of the notes you play, not the quantity. Everyone wants to be able to shred, but chances are your favorite songs are not your favorites because of a face melting solo. Your ability to play the guitar will only ever be limited by your muscle memory and ability to apply music theory. I'll customize a plan to get you hearing results quickly. The best way to stay motivated in learning is being able to hear your progress. I hold that above all else, your results.

I love music and I love sharing music with people. The average person may not know how to write a melody or a chord progression, but they can tell if you play the wrong notes. It's what makes music the universal language. People may disagree in regards to the music they like to listen to, but you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who enjoys listening to a toddler pound randomly at a piano.

I've taught several friends how to create music in a variety of ways and I feel I have an ability to get people started quickly and excited to keep learning. Not many things feel as rewarding as seeing a person's eyes light up when it starts to "click" with them and they get excited to make music.

I've taught many friends how to create music in a variety of ways. Guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, singing, and more. I'm only offering guitar and bass lessons, but I've been told I'm very good at explaining music concepts.

Everything I consider myself proficient in I taught myself. I like to think the only limits to my abilities depend completely on my interest in the subject.

About the lesson

I typically try to do a free introductory lesson to determine the prospective student's skill level, learning style, and if we get along in general. However, if you need me to drive more than a few miles I will charge a small fee to cover traveling costs.

As of now, just friends and my sons.

Ask yourself why you want to hire a guitar teacher. In my experience most of what you will learn from a typical guitar teacher is very textbook and you can get a lot of that info from YouTube videos. I like to consider myself a music teacher that focuses on guitar and bass. It doesn't matter how well your hands move on the guitar if the sounds coming out don't create good music.

Any open mics.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Same as before. Ask yourself why you want a guitar teacher. Do you hope to become a songwriter? Do you want to play in a cover band? Do you want to sound original or just impress people with your ability to play songs people are familiar with?

Not yet. I'm just starting to offer lessons and I'm willing to offer an introductory lesson for free unless it's a long distance to drive. Then I will ask for up to $20. Subsequent lessons will be $20/hr in addition to the travel costs. Price per lesson will increase as demand increases, but I will be sure not to surprise you with any sort of cost increase.
