About Me
My name is Jack, I'm a Guitarist, Producer, Musician/Songwriter from London UK.
I offer a unique approach to music, drawing from genres such as Motown, world music, soul, jazz, flamenco, rock and plenty more. Whatever your goal is, be it learning for fun, or aiming to perform in a real band setting, my methods are highly adaptable for the individual.
Having lived in the country's capital my whole life, toured across Europe, curated events and performed thousands of times, I've learned a lot over my 12+ years experience in music, and want to share that with my students.
Together we can cover topics ranging from playing by ear, music theory concepts, learning songs, gear and tone, production classes, audio recording/engineering, and anything else that interests you.
(I have DBS checks within the past 6 months and can obtain these on request)

Ever felt overwhelmed with the amount of features on DAW's? We've all been there... In fact this took me years of fumbling through the software wasting precious time!
As a freelance producer, musician and engineer myself, I'm offering a beginners guide to music production. We will be using Logic Pro X (and some Ableton if that's your preference) and I'll be teaching you the fundamental's of the software, how to record MIDI and audio, editing audio and MIDI, how plug ins work, tips and tricks for EQ, and plenty more.
If you feel this is up your alley or know someone who would be interested, then send me a message and we can get started today.
