About
I have been teaching private lessons for over 20 years. In addition to that, I have shared the stage/studio with artists such as: The Temptations, Mavis Staples, Chuck D, The Wooten Brothers, Cowboy Mouth, Larry Garner, Rick Ross, Scarface, Tab Benoit to name a few!
Music is my passion and I aim to pass that along! My goal is to inspire my students to be able to play the music they love and to expand their horizons!

Amazing guitar player and diligent teacher! Would recommend to anyone starting out or wanting to fine tune their skills. He has a great deal of knowledge and experience when it comes to music theory and playing various styles. If you want to enjoy your lesson and grow as a musician then Ian Webster is your guy!
