Noteworthy Music
About
I have been a local Atlanta musician for many years and continue to play professionally in and around town. I'm left handed! I play guitar, bass guitar, drums, and sing. Can help new students become accustomed to guitar basics such as how to hold, strumming and picking techniques, string changes, chords, and individual notes. I can show you how to play that song that you want to learn to impress your friends. Do not teach sight reading.
I enjoy working with others musically and sharing similarities in musical tastes and styles.
