About me
I am a professional Guitar player with over 16+ years of experience. I have graduated from The Academy Of Contemporary Music with First Class Degree in 2017. I have achieved a teaching qualification from Yamaha Music UK and over the last two years, I have been teaching more than 200 students with approximately 120 students per week. I have prepared numerous students for their Collage Entry exams, Music University Exams, Grade 1 to 5 Rockschool exam, Ukulele Exams as well as grade 8+ expertise. I am also a passionate songwriter with creativity expanding above the generic styles and genres. I have specialised in Blues, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Fusion, Metal as well as Classical music, thanks to my foundation in the early stages of my musical journey. My interest in music production from working with SSL and Neve over the last couple of years have pushed me to become proficient in Logic X, with my secondary goal of mastering Pro Tool and UAD plugins. My experience, working for a London based songwriting company has given me experience in creating, recording and producing music for artists in styles different from my main areas, such as Pop and new wave commercial music.In conclusion, I am an open-minded individual, always looking into creating good music, helping as many people along the way, as well as learning new skills.
