About
I'm a rhythm and lead guitarist & songwriter for multiple projects with worldwide social recognition. I graduated from San Jose State with a Bachelor's of Music in jazz guitar, and am currently teaching around 40 lessons a week to students ranging in ability from beginner to professional. My versatility, experience and formal training helps me to make the learning experience easy, stress free and fun. Currently, I play in a number of performing groups gigging regularly & produce artists for their own projects. I spent much of the past 20 years touring with a blues gospel artist, EC Scott, in which I have played with and rubbed elbows with a number of well known musician celebrities. Since 2001, I have released 5 Albums which have received airplay worldwide on various digital platforms and radio stations. I am currently endorsed by Blade guitars by Gary Levinson. I teach my clients in my creative and comfortable home teaching studio in Gilroy, California and online. I work with singers, guitarists/bassists, pianists & songwriters/producers/composers in a wide age range, assorted skill levels with a variety of musical goals. Some of the musical styles I regularly teach: Rock, Pop, Blues, Jazz, Funk, Soul, R&B, Country and Folk. I am Currently teaching all styles in guitar, bass, and ukulele in a fun atmosphere!

In just first session my 13 year old already applied what Mr. Ireton taught him. In just his first lesson I can already tell the value and expertise of Mr. Ireton and the impact on my 13 year old guitar skills have improved!!

Bill is an excellent instructor. He knows the material thoroughly, and he will focus the material according to where you are at in your playing. I highly recommend him (for all ages, to-be-sure)!

Bill was very patient with my disabled son and made him feel valued and important. He didn't get frustrated when he had to give my son reminders on things he already said. Highly recommend
