David Kohn Guitar, Drums, And Bass Lessons
About
I have been playing drums, guitar, and bass my entire life, I have recorded on over 100 records and have performed in hundreds of shows playing alongside artists such as Ambrosia, REO Speedwagon, Taylor Hawkins, Sammy Hagar, Snoop Dogg, Sheryl Crow, and much more. I have helped teach the Lindero Canyon Middle school's music program as well as Rock and Roll High's summer camps over the past 5 years.
I remember when I first started playing music and the teacher I had at the time inspired me beyond belief. I knew that one day I wanted to be able to give someone else that experience and thankfully I have been fortunate enough to step into the shoes of a teacher and hopefully inspire others as I was when I first started.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I will start by discussing the style and genre of music my student would like to learn more about. I always want to help my students succeed at the lane of music they enjoy rather than teaching them certain aspects of each instrument that may drive them away at first. While theory and technique are very important aspects of music, I find that teaching someone how to find their own groove and feel is more important than the theory or technique at first.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have over 5 years of experience teaching students and I have spent my entire life performing and recording for high production companies in a wide range of genres.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $50 an hour for the first two lessons and if a student wishes to continue past those two lessons I charge $80 an hour for all future lessons.
How did you get started teaching?
I started teaching in high school after I started experiencing some personal success as a musician. I helped out at the local middle school with world renowned music teacher Matt McKagen. I learned from Matt and took his teachings beyond the middle school and to the students that I had personally. During the summers, I taught through the Rock and Roll High summer camp that would help kids who have never played an instrument before become able to play through 3 songs by the end of a 5 day period with a full band.
