Recent success stories from people in the Calumet City area.
Bill G.
Awesome Educator. I am unique since I have the privilege of having Eric Lambert teaching me guitar personally. In three years he had brought me from a guy just sitting around listing to bluegrass jams to one who has been playing in them. Eric is very friendly and a great teacher. He listens to what you what to achieve and makes sure (as long as you practice) that read more about review stating Awesome Educatorou can reach your goal. Eric suggested that I subscribe to his Flatpicking Bluegrass channel and I am so happy that I did. His step-by-step approach in breaking a song down has allowed me to focus on items that there just isn’t enough time to go over in a lesson. I would highly recommend Eric, you won’t be disappointed.
