Brandon Provides:
Guitar Lessons
โ
Born and raised in South Florida, Brandon's musical adventure started back when he was 12 years old. Watching live performances from his favorite bands inspired him to pick up an electric guitar and thus began his burning passion, to become a guitar player and teacher. Although a metal lover at heart, he has been playing for 15+ years in other genres such as Rock, indie, progressive, R&B, and of course metal. When not instructing at local studios, he would be performing in front of crowds at local venues, and on numerous stages with improvised instrumentals. His ability to learn music by ear and able to put music theory knowledge to practical use gives him the edge to invoke emotion in music. When teaching his students, he does well to ensure they consume the most out of each session, while making it engaging and rewarding to improve their musical talents. Although music is his passion, the students are his legacy!

J.P. Provides:
Piano Lessons
โ
J.P. started playing the piano at 10 years old. After arranging two songs for performance in his senior year of high school, he resigned himself to a music life and started picking up new skills in college, including the pipe organ, jazz piano, live sound, composition, theory, music recording and production, and more.
As a teacher, J.P. believes that playing music should stay fun, even when it’s difficult, so he challenges students to learn the theory as well as the technique; after all, writing is just as important as reading in any other language, so why not music?
Most of the time, he can be found in front of a keyboard or a computer, hammering out his next piece of music.
