I spend a lot of time performing on various stages, playing guitar, banjo, and keyboards primarily. I love sharing what I know with others, and I especially love seeing someone I've taught succeed in their chosen path. I've taught young children how to collaborate musically, I've taught people to play the banjo, guitar, piano, and I've taught music classes to bigger groups. One thing I'm very proud of about myself is my ability to improvise and adapt my musicianship to what is required in a given opportunity. Read More

My teaching style consists of building a report with my student while really using their interest as motivation. I set realistic goals while also challenging the student to achieve success.

The lessons are filled with real time instruction and learning. Read More

I am percussionist, composer and educator, Larry Q. Draughn Jr. I've been "banging on stuff" and trying to understand rhythm for most of my life.

I've shared the stage with greats like Jimmy Heath, Branford Marsalis, Joey Calderazzo, and Christian McBride to name a few. My gift has and is taking me all around the world. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music, Keyboard

There is nothing more rewarding to me that seeing my student develop a passion of singing or overcoming a vocal concept. It is important that students progress at their own pace rather than comparing themselves to their friends and colleagues. I help them set goals for them on a weekly basis that will influence their own practice between lessons. I acknowledge my students' accomplishments, which encourages them to continue their progress and makes them eager to learn more. Read More
