Guitar Lessons & Bouzouki Resources

I've been teaching music for over ten years now (how the time flies by!). I teach Irish music by ear, so I highly recommend that my students bring along a recording device, but I often provide handouts about concepts that I cover. I teach privately and also in public classes and workshops.

Also on this page, you can find various resources that I'm compiling to help students learn about and enjoy guitar and bouzouki accompaniment in Irish music.

Learn to Play Irish Whistle and Flute

If you're in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area, I currently teach beginner through intermediate whistle and flute lessons at the Irish Fest School of MusicContact me for more information!

Learn to Play Guitar and Bouzouki

I'm also available to teach guitar and bouzouki, as well as accompaniment theory for Irish traditional music. We can explore concepts and techniques of rhythm guitar for backing Irish music, as well as bouzouki picking and strumming technique in the styles of Alec Finn and Donal Lunny.

I primarily play in DADGAD and GDAD tunings, although we can explore backing tunes in any tuning you might prefer. If you're in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area, contact me for lessons!
