Bass Guitar

Hi all, I have been playing guitar and bass for over 20 years now and would not want to do anything else!

I first started playing as my dad is a musician and therefore gave me lots of encouragement from a young age. I am now 27 and have been fortunate enough to tour all over the UK professionally as well as performing and tutoring locally. I have built up a wealth of experience which would be a shame not to pass on, and therefore teaching allows me to do this. I like to think that my real interest and enthusiasm comes across in my lessons and I reckon that building a student's confidence is just as important as nurturing technical ability. The bottom line is cultivating good players with the confidence to go out there and play with other musicians, and most importantly have fun. Passing my knowledge and passion for music on makes it all worthwhile.
