Instruments: Guitar Voice
I do this because I love music, and I love helping others love music. So, while I do want the students to be very proficient musicians, I am mostly concerned in helping cultivate the student's passion for music. After all, if the student doesn't love the music, it's not near as urgent to practice and produce results. The love of the music is what drives the practice. Also, while I have general curriculums designed to guide the student's educational journey, I know that all students learn at different paces. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
What's more fun then playing music and perfoming with friends or family! After I did a couple of gigs and thought, All this fun and we get paid too! I was hooked!
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes my Father won a song writing contest put on by Eddy Arnold in the 50's. Eddy arnold recorded his song and my father performed the song on Eddy Arnolds sindicated Radio show.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Easy question......We had too many guitar players and we needed a bass player so i stepped up to the plate. Easy question......We had too many guitar players and we needed a bass player so i stepped up to the plate.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I Love "Weather Report"... anything from the Heavy Weather Album. I Love Miles Davis, just about anything from that album. Johnny Winter was my introduction to Blues...I like a lot of his tunes so it would be difficult to narrow down to one tune. I have a very broad pallet!

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I took all the music classes and didnt finish the academics. I would not recommend this to anyone, but it is the path i chose. My Applied Major was Voice, but my interest was far more diverse... I had a real interest in Music teory and understanding all I could about that subject. I went so far as to go to another college and take all the music classes from that as well..... its better to get a degree!
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Any Beginner Method book will work... I tend to use Hal Leonard, because that is what is available. I use my teachers book Complete Jazz Guitar Method by Vincent Bredice, published by Mel Bay
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Chord Melody guitar playing. All elements of guitar are hard until you have accomplished all the essentials. Practicing all arppegios, chords scales in every postion on the guitar is verychallenging. Soloing is also difficult.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
This will depend on what the outcome is. Specifically i spend time working through tunes for a particular artist. I may or may not write charts depending on how complicated and how much time i have to devout to it.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have a student that was a professor at a University, One that Plays with a Famous Coutry artist, and another who has his on guitar method, website and a fantastic musician!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Playing in a Band that is a top ten Billboard Blues Charts Ensemble! Playing with some of the best drummers in the world right in South Florida.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
This is a hard question. I have several primary instruments... I enjoy the challege of Playing bass and singing, the challenge of soloing on guitar and love them equally.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had many teachers inspire me, not only just teachers but also musicians of many different instruments, vovalists, Guitarists, Bass players, sax players, drummers....
Vencent Bredice taught me how to learn as well as how to teach.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They must be ready to spend a minimum of 30 minutes a day practicing. if they can sit and take a 30 minute lesson then they can take lessons.
When will I start to see results?
Every student is different and learn at a different pace... I would say 6 weeks would be an average time frame to see results if they practice dilligently.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't spend too much time on one area. keep intense focus for 5-10 minutes and move onto another area.
example: 1. Practice the Melody for 10 minutes
2. Practice chords for 10 min
3. Practice arpeggios for 10 min...etc...
