Introduction: Want to learn to ROCK? How about FUNK? Country? Blues? Want to write songs? Sing? Whatever you want to learn, Skyler will help you get there! Hailing from the vast empty desert of Central Washington, he teaches many styles including Rock, Blues, Classical, Jazz, Funk, Experimental/Ambient music, Country and Folk music. While studying at Central Washington University he discovered his love of teaching and maintained a studio of over 30 students before completing his studies in 2011. He currently holds his B.A. in Music/Guitar Performance from CWU. Skyler has a solid background in theory/songwriting and is proficient on Guitar, Piano, & Bass. He teaches his lessons with a well-rounded approach and aims to inspire creativity and passion in his students. After moving to Seattle in early 2012 Skyler hit the ground running in the Seattle music scene… currently he stays very busy playing professionally. In addition to his own band, Skyler is currently playing and recording with The Nick Foster Band, Dead End Friend, The Hoyer Brothers, Cody Beebe & The Crooks, Austin Jenckes (from NBC’s The Voice), Kara Hesse, Susan Galbraith, and Sarah Gerritsen & the Shadowcatchers. In the last two years Skyler has been Switzerland, Germany, France, Spain, Holland, Belgium, Austria, Canada & over 35 states on tour, so he has no shortage of professional experience to back up his resume. Instruments • Guitar • Piano • Bass • Voice • Slide Guitar Styles • Rock • Blues • Jazz • Funk / R&B • Folk • Country • Classical • Alternative Teaching completes me as a musician, It helps me to learn grow and develop as a person! I find so much joy in sharing my craft and helping others find the same love that I have for it. Music is my life, and I will do my best to spread my knowledge to those who seek it. :)

Skyler is an excellent teacher! I have progressed significantly since I began taking lessons and I got out of the rut I had been in for years. I can't wait to learn more!

Skyler did a great job with teaching myself and my daughter guitar! We were both beginners and he was able to help us both learn and advance according to our individual pace (my daughter moved faster then I did ! ). Highly recommend Skyler regardless of your skill level.

Every musical opportunity I have shared with Skyler Mehal has been a positive one. He is a professional that is true to his craft. A genuine, kind soul and a pleasure to work with. I have learned so much from him over the years, and I will continue to do so.

I have hired and depended on Skyler for guitar, bass, piano and vocals on any amount of notice to write, record or perform just he and I in a room with a mic or in front of a crowd of hundreds. Point being, he's versatile and delivers. The same consistent musicality is what he offers through his teaching. I've learned how to be better at every aspect of music working with him, from the technical aspect to simply enjoying playing and listening more. Highly recommend
