Brad M. says, "I started lessons with Anthony in December. Throughout my life I have had 3 guitar teachers before him, for as long as a year, and have never been better than I am right now (this is also in half the session time as previous teachers had me start with 1hr sessions). For the first time in my life I am confident to say "I play guitar," despite having started lessons when I was still in elementary school! His knowledge of the guitar, calm demeanour and method of teaching have me more comfortable than ever with a guitar in my hands. I'm confident transitioning between chords, as well as barre chords for the first time in my life! Oh, and now I can read music! Within the first month I was already able to start picking up and learning a few songs and now I can play most songs that I try to learn, picking up the chord progressions rather simply for most songs I attempt. Right now we are still progressing to get better each week, learning cool finger techniques and scales! After just a small time with Anthony I've developed a love and passion for playing the guitar, which has turned into an almost therapeutic experience right in the palm of my hands! Can't say enough good things about Anthony, and if your on the fence then I would say don't wait, start as soon as you can! You will be glad you did as right from day 1, Anthony will leave you amazed with what he can teach you!"See more

Jared's Live Music offers engaging live performances of classic rock covers from the 60s to 2000s, perfect for weddings, corporate events, and all other upscale celebrations. “Jared’s Live Music, LLC” is the name Jared Goldstein uses to perform live music. I founded the LLC in 2026, however I began performing at six years old and have since built decades of experience on stage. I received private instruction in guitar, bass, and vocals, laying a strong technical foundation that continues to shape my dynamic live sound. For eight years, I performed extensively as the lead singer and bass player in a cover band alongside my brothers, honing my stage presence, musical versatility, and ability to connect with diverse audiences. In addition to my performance background, I bring a professional edge to the music business. I am a graduate of the University of South Florida’s MUMA College of Business, where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management. If an audience came to see me at any of the gigs I currently play, they would have the opportunity to watch me sing and play guitar for three to four hours, and listen to me perform live rock-and-roll music covers from the 60s to the 2000s. If a client hired me, they would have their choice of either me performing three to four hours of live rock-and-roll music covers from the 60s to the 2000s, or me performing three to four hours of live music covers of love songs and slow dance/upbeat songs to dance to!See more

Brian C. says, "I’ve had a great experience learning with Erik. He is patient, encouraging, and really knows how to break things down in a way that makes everything feel achievable. Each lesson is well‑structured and tailored to what I want to learn. I’ve made steady progress and feel more confident every week, although a European tour still a few years away. I highly recommend Erik to anyone looking to grow as a guitarist."See more

Matt's Music ONLINE Guitar/Bass/Ukulele/Mandolin
Matt's Music ONLINE Guitar/Bass/Ukulele/Mandolin
Matt is a great guitar teacher! I’ve really enjoyed taking lessons with him. We take lessons virtually and I’m so impressed by his ability to instantly provide feedback on chord fingerings, even when we’re through a screen. He’s comfortable with whatever genre/style the student wants to play, and adapts his lessons to whatever the student is interested in. I love talking about music theory, and Matt is an oracle of knowledge on the subject. I highly recommend Matt as a guitar teacher.

Jonathan Sherrill

I played guitar for about 20 years with lots of on and offs in between, I was able to play metal riffs, some shredding, classical music and some music theory. being Jonathan's student took my playing to another level. within a short time (after a month) I already felt a huge improvement of my understanding of music theory, being able to improvise better, play cleaner and organize my routine into efficient practice that I can now see results way faster. beside his amazing personality and being super patient, Jonathan is one of the best guitar teachers I have met, I'm still surprised with how much I'm learning every time we have a lesson. If you have any doubt, just book a lesson and you will see what I'm talking about :)

Robbie Seahag Mangano

Robbie is really helping me to get past a guitar plateau. I found myself playing variations on the same concepts after years of playing, and lessons were the antidote to break out of that rut. He has a deep understanding of the instrument (theory and otherwise) and teaches through concepts and exercises that make you want to play. Working with Robbie has absolutely made me a better player.

I've been working with David as a "beginner" bass player for only a few weeks at this point, but I am already seeing really remarkable results, even in such a short time. He is very clear in his explanations, methodical, patient and knowledgeable. My lessons are a good mix of theory and practice (which is in response to my expressed interest in knowing more compositional theory). I feel much more confident about my bass playing, and am able to communicate better with band members. Most importantly, I have confident that with his continued guidance, I will be able to reach a level of competency and creativity. Based on my experience, I recommend him to anyone who want to learn the bass guitar, without any reservations.

Josh Taylor Guitar Lessons
Josh Taylor Guitar Lessons
I’m finally in a state of content in my life where I am able to afford to do things like my passions. One of my passions would be music, and I had my first guitar lesson on Thursday 🥺. Josh was so nice, patient, and kind. I even found that I am a fast learner, (I already knew some chords and scales, but I haven’t played in months nor knew much music theory) but I realize as I’m practicing, I am getting better and better when I practice daily for 30 minutes. Really taking the time out of your day for your passions really does help with your creativity and confidence. Shout out to Josh you the 🐐

I’ve had many music teachers over the years and I can confidently say that Stelios is among the best. He is extremely passionate and knowledgable about music, and genuinely enjoys digging into any and all material that you want to learn. Whether you want to learn a new song, work on your own songwriting, or dive into music theory, Stelios is always attentive and ready with encouragement and constructive feedback. He can very quickly figure out how to play a song after listening to it once or twice, and can always break it down so that it’s easy to learn. If you’re interested in songwriting, Stelios often accompanies you and will provide feedback that fosters both growth and independence. He is able to pinpoint both your strengths and your areas for improvement, and tailors his lessons to meet your needs as a student and a musician. Stelios makes his students feel comfortable immediately with his warm, sincere personality and his hospitality. It is clear that Stelios truly loves music of all varieties, and truly loves to teach and learn. These qualities, among many others, make him a rare and excellent guitar teacher.
