About

I teach the way I learned: by playing the music that inspired us to pick up the instrument in the first place. I help students learn the nuts and bolts of technic, theory and ear training by playing the songs they love. Each lesson is customized for the student in a fun, low-pressure environment. I understand that my students either go to school or work during the day so I want music to be an escape for them, not a job. My main goal is to inspire new players to be awesome musicians.

I played in multiple, rock, jazz, blues and metal groups in Seattle for over twenty years before moving to the Spokane area where I opened my own lesson studio. I've recoded and produced dozens of records for my own groups and others in many different styles. I've also had over 25 years experience with guitar repair and maintenance.

    Matt got in touch with me right away. He seems easy to work with and I’m excited to get going. We worked on my guitar mainly in the first lesson. We’ll be restringing my Gibson next and I’m to bring 3 tunes I’d like to work on at the next lesson.

    I’ve been working with him for over six years now and have learned so much. I like his teaching style because it’s organized and you lead based off of what you want to improve on.
