Herridge Music
About
My name is Kyle Herridge and I have 10+ years combined experience in music education, performance, and songwriting! I have 2 years experience in public education as a choir director, piano director, and general music teacher for elementary and middle school students. I also have 8 years of teaching private lessons 1-on-1 and in a group setting. I am a piano accompanist for Frisco ISD and have previously performed in concerts for Ector County ISD and Odessa High School. I’ve composed music for live podcasts, online video games, potential upcoming TV shows, and local music groups. I’ve been involved with several music projects, including lead songwriter for jazz/pop group Abbey & The Afternoon and guitarist for The Doc Gibbs Band. Through these opportunities, I’ve gained knowledge in many genres including pop, rock, country, jazz, and classical. I look forward to help you in any way I can along your musical journey!
My passion lies in two things: music and teaching. I remember how amazed I was as a child discovering music and the potential that I held and I want to pass that sense of wonder on to my students. I enjoy approaching each lesson with a mindset that fits the students thought process to help them understand the beauty of music.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Learn what their skill level is and what they enjoy about music. We'll then go over any basics that still need to be covered. Once the first steps are learned, we can begin to branch out with song practice, scales, basic music theory, etc. Usually we pick the songs together so they enjoy practicing and playing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am state-certified in Texas to teach music through the high school level. I also have studied music at the University of Texas at Dallas
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My rate is $40/hour. Students can also take 30 minute lessons
