About

I started playing guitar in 1999 and started playing professionally in 2010. I've toured all over the country with Texas Country Artist, Casey Donahew and appeared on his albums, All Night Party, 15 Years: The Wild Ride, One Light Town, and Lost My Brothers Goat. I have taught lessons throughout my entire professional career becuase I absolutely love it. I love to pass along the things that I've learned and continue to learn. We can reach goals in a career, start from scratch, dig out of a playing rut, or get you ready to do a blues jam on a Wednesday night. Let's book a lesson today!!

I have a passion for music that never stops. Whether it's teaching, recording, writing, producing, touring or just practicing, I just can't get enough. Feel free to follow my music journey--

John has a very down to earth, thorough approach on teaching. He focuses on the important fundamentals and techniques while also considering where you’d like to go with your playing. He enjoys seeing progress just as much as you do.

I have learned more from two months of sessions than I have in three to four years of playing before. I would definitely recommend experiencing lessons with him first hand for a player at any skill level. He is willing to share everything he knows about guitar.

The price for an hour session each week is very reasonable as well. Reach out to John and get on the schedule if you’d like to work toward the next level!

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

I do an evaluation of the current skill level as well as the goals for lessons. Do you want to just jam with friends, learn how to improvise, learn to play songs you love, or take new steps in a career as a musician?

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have 22 years of experience playing music, 12 years of experience teaching privately and in a school, 10 years of touring, and have recorded many albums. I have a system that works, and the proof is in the great players that have taken lessons from me.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

$20 for 30 min

$30 for 45 min
