About this pro
I have been a full time musician/music teacher for over 20 years. I've done just about every type of gig you can think of and have performed in over 50 different countries. I've taught at several schools including 12 years as a music professor at the University of Tampa. Classes taught include ensembles, music theory, and private lessons for college credit.
I play all styles but if you want to hear some of my instrumental jazz/rock/funk it can be heard at reverbnation.com/stevemathews
Music is what I am most passionate about and I enjoy sharing what I've learned in over 20 years as a full time professional musician with others.
