Introduction: I have a unique experience, having performed music all over the world, in festivals, on TV, and have a long history of teaching. I'm different in that I have traditional training, but embrace new music technology and the new musical world of the internet age. I love to teach my students in a new way that I feel is neglected in modern music education. Namely, focusing on groove and rhythm, and utilizing new technology with old traditions.

I interviewed quite a number of bass teachers before choosing Kellen. He's very on top of things, communicates well, gets right down to business and stays focused for the entire time, and is great at explaining and encouraging the student. I'm very happy with his lessons and would recommend him to anyone looking to learn bass guitar or upright bass.

Amazing teacher. I take skype lessons with him and i've never had a better teacher. At first I was skeptical about skype lessons because I thought I wouldn't get the same experience as a one on one lesson in person, but I was wrong. The lessons are great and personalized and I really feel like I'm heading in a better direction working with Kellen.

Great teacher! Very knowledgeable, knew exactly what I needed from the first lesson and changed my playing immediately.

I had wanted to play bass for a while, but didn't know where to start. He first took me through the basics and gave me some exercises for my technique. Pretty soon we were off and running and I was playing along to songs. Lessons are fun and I learn by playing what I love to play (mostly Beatles). Highly recommended!

If you want serious bass lessons, Kellen will give them to you. He's a very pleasant guy to be around, but I'm very focused on becoming a good bass player and improving quickly. Kellen is right there with me, motivating me and challenging me to improve. This is what I was looking for in a teacher, someone that helps me accelerate as fast as possible.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My standard rates are $60/hr or $40/half hour
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I offer a first free lesson, so students can see if lessons with me are the right fit for them. I like to start with what the student is attracted to about music (say a favorite song) then work back to learning about harmony, groove, technology, etc. from there.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies from William Paterson University. Since graduating I have been gigging professionally for the last 12 years.
