Nurturing and Challenging Musical Minds on Acoustic Instruments Since 1986
I’ve taught private lessons since 1986. My experience also includes being an Adjunct Professor in the Appalachian Studies Department at East Tennessee State University from 2000-2016; ETSU is the only university in the world that offers a major in bluegrass music, . If you are interested in taking private lessons to reach your musical level of comfort, from the novice to the professional, I’m your guy. I specialize in teaching young kids and young musicians to help nuture their creative style, but I’m also qualified to teach professional and accomplished musicians alike. I am also available for studio session work.
I teach students locally, but if you are not in the area, I also teach via Skype and Facetime. Contact me if you are interested in taking private lessons, no matter where you may be in the world from what the Johnson City Press calls a “legendary local teacher and musician.”
