Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Ukulele Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard

I've been a lifetime musician, and love finding unique and fun ways to motivate my students.  I've worked with most styles of music before, and arranged music for many as well, so I'm very comfortable helping students with a variety of disciplines and interests.  My experience in both the civilian and military music communities has given me a very open-minded but direct approach to WHAT you should learn, and HOW FAST you should be able to progress each individual student.

Teacher In Spotlight

Thomas D

Instruments: Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
By age 12 I was becoming serious about music. I formed a band with my friends and we used to practice in my parent's garage. I was always pushing to practice more. I had a drive to want to sound better right from the beginning. I'm not sure exactly where that desire came from. I always took music seriously. But I loved baseball too and had dreams of playing for the St. Louis Cardinals. Around age 16 or 17 I began to lean more on music than baseball. I wasn't thinking of it as a career but gradually music began to define nearly everything I did.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My younger brother sings and plays guitar, bass and piano. We've written songs together and had a band. No one before us in our family played (that I'm aware of). But we grew up with music in our house. My father had an incredible vinyl collection. Motown, The Beatles, Elvis, Phil Spector's records. Music was always playing around the house. I remember studying the album artwork as the record played. I wanted to know how was in the band and what instruments they played. I wanted to learn who produced the records and who wrote the songs. I loved growing up in a house full of music.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
From the guitar, I picked up most things with strings: bass, ukulele, etc. I can also play piano and sing. Once I learned the guitar, I didn't find it too difficult to move on to other instruments. The basic theory of chords, scales and keys was the same. As I stated above, when I learn a song I listen to all the parts. So after I learn the guitar part, I'll study what the drums and bass are doing. I'll study the lyrics and vocal melody. I'm interested in how each part works together to create the sound of the band.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I enjoy so many different styles of music it's impossible for me to choose one. One of the exciting things about technology is we have moved into a post-genre time in music. I listen to it all. I listen to The Smiths and Radiohead and Ryan Adams and Wilco and Segovia and Django and Willie Nelson, Dylan and The Beatles. I love Bach and Debussy. I tend to pull from all these genres as I play and write. Prince has been a big influence on me. He wrote and performed within so many disparate styles of music.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
