About
I have been a professional guitarist in Los Angeles since 2008, working with artists such as Phil Collins, Engelbert Humperdinck, Philip Bailey (EWF), Steve Winwood, and on mainstream movies, trailers & tv shows. Past students include film composer Richard Gibbs, songwriter Ran Jackson, Solomon King, Merlinmoon, Nathan West. My approach to teaching is tailored to your needs and whether it's 1 master class or a weekly lesson, it will make you jump leaps and bounds in your playing. Berklee curriculum preparatory classes available. I offer classes in English, French and Spanish. Reach me @johannfrank on social media directly for inquiries, thank you
I believe that picking up an instrument can be one of the most uplifting activities for which there has never been a better time to start and/or develop than nowadays, given the current 2020 predicaments. Music is medicine for the soul, and gaining the ability to *make* it brings this truth to a whole other level. I have lived it for the past 23 years.
Seeing my students all around the world pick up a guitar from scratch, and steadily start playing chords, scales, songs, is of infinite wealth to me. Equally, being able to give new perspectives and tools to experienced players so that they can infuse it back into their playing and songwriting is incredibly rewarding.
